So I made a thread a few days ago about a hard hard metal on metal grinding form my fromnt end, it wasnt a constant noise but more of a spiratic here and there for one second here one second there type of thing

I noticed my drivers axle was kind of out of the tranny, maybe 3/16" or so of shinny metal showing. So I figured I just didnt install it right

So today I take the drivers axle out and I literally just popped it out with one hand, just pulled and out she came, there was no c-clip on the end of the axle. I dont remember seeing it or not or did it fall off in the tranny?

Also a few pieces of whatfeels like plastic came out with it, there in a circular shape, light brown colour and would probably make a 2" diameter piece that looks like a castle nut if it was fully formed (but only about 1/3 of the piece fell out.

Also a bit of what seemed like a ------- sos pad came out, all bundled up and clumped together with the plastic piece

I feel in the tranny and nothing feels weird so I proceed to reinstall the axle,
grab another clip, put it on and reinstall the axle, took a few good shoves to get it in there and I couldnt pull it back out so I was satisfied and put everything back together

So everythings back together, wheels on the car and its jacked up. I spin the drivers side wheel and it turns no problem then stops, turn it back the other way and it stops, like it kinda locks, you can overcome the stop with a good bit of force. Kinda weird

I spin the passenger side wheel FORWARD and the drivers side wheel doesnt move. I spin the passenger wheel BACKWARD and the drivers wheel starts rotating backwards

I have no idea whats oging on, figured Id go for a drive.

So in reverse down my big driveway I hear nothing, purring like a ------- kitten, no noises no nothing

As soon as I start moving forward ---- hits the ------- fan and theres the griding again, goes for a sec then stops, goes then stops, shift, little grind. Slightly different noises everytime to. When driving part throttle you can feel a kind of clunk in the shifter, like somethings hitting it.

I dont know what else to describe. Is it the axles? Tranny? Install? Somethings screwed and I need help, I need to drive this car

Thanks guys

sounds like somethin's rollin around in the tranny. pull the case apart and have a lookie

Turblow

Nothings "rolling around" its a grind from something. Pulling the case is my last option, the tranny was absolutely mint last year when i took it off my other motor so I dont think thats the case

theres a noise comeing from my front end and ---- fell out of my tranny but that cant possibly be my problem! :1

Turblow

I dont know man, no chance it could be the axles or they might just be mint?

I dont wanna pull the ------- tranny, I just for the car put back together and the tranny was mint on the last setup

I dont wanna do the tranny and find out its something else

Gonna be hard as ---- to find a tranny around here to

HMT-Admin

highly doubt its an axle,

trans is coming out buddy wether you like it or not.

W O T

Only when the car is in gear it makes the grinding noise?

Turblow

Alright ---- it, this cars the biggest money pit

I cant even just find any old d16 tranny either can I? Ive got a 6 puck sprung clutch that I absolutely must keep

The car is an 88 Crx Si, the trans I believe is a 89-91 I'll have to check my pm's for what lsd mike told me

Finding a crx tranny around here could take freaking weeks

fork

do you seriously think anfter pulling plastic, metal, and sos pads out of your axel hole, that the trans coujld possibly be okay
