inspection plate for what?

 

Ditto on the confusion regarding the question. Try to provide a little more detailed info and these guys (they know their stuff) can probably answer your question.

 

Sorry bout that. for the fly wheel its making a rattle and every thing I've brings me to it just wanting to peek at it before I have to pull the tranz

 

you shouldn't, if im not mistaking all manual have an inspection plate on the bottom 5" or so and help in with a couple screws

 

manual or standard? you say flywheel, that would leave me to believe its manual, since automatics dont have a "flywheel" and im pretty sure manuals dont have an inspection plate (at least the ones Ive dealt with) but if its an automatic, most automatics you can remove the botom part of the bell housing, aka "inspection plate" and see if your rattle is a torque converter bolt come undone from the "flex plate" hopes this helps...

do you know casey or tyrell anderson, from fairview? I have a lot of family down there

 

when i helped tom with his trans it had one on the front, but i could be wrong.... what tranny is it anyways? lol

 

Well I know two Casey anderson's from here I was born and raised here and it is a manual tranz

 

It's a manual tranz and do you think I'm wasting time looking in that direction or not? pulling a tranz is a little out of my ability's any suggestions

 

First off welcome to the forum!
I personally have never pulled a cherokee trans, but every other fly wheel bolt I've seen would cause some serious damage if it backed its self out enough! Snapping the bolt off buy hitting the block (although unlikely) could happen! Has the trans been replaced in the past? To better diagnose the rattle give us more info please i.e.; what does it sound like (jeep talk- tink, tick, click, clunk...), where on the truck, when you started to notice the rattle, & why you suspect the fly wheel?

More than happy to help a fellow UT jeeper!

 

Well it was doing it when I bought it bout 6 months ago. It sounds like there is a piston slapping right next to the fire wall when it very first starts for bout 3 seconds and then comes back again at around 3500 rpm . What leads me to it is just some research and the fact that the motor still runs strong and sounds great

 

is it only when driveing or does it happen when parked & reving it up???

 

Well when its parked and reved up its very faint but is there and worse when driving

 

Where is the snake canyon or snake back, or what ever it was kinda down by eagle mountain. Where is it again. Sorry i forgot.

 

if im not mistaken 5mile is about 10 miles west of cider fort or around 20 from the chevron on redwood in lehi

 

wait a sec... No hey guys, how's it hangin or nothing? Long time no see!

The rattle snake & constrictor trail is one of the hardest in UT to find! Lol ur better off rolling out with us on the 26th.
