Posting here to get some advice on how to fix my 1994 Cherokee Sport.
Long story short, halfway through a road trip yesterday I began to hear a whining noise from the transmission tunnel area of the car while driving around 75mph in 5th. Suddenly I heard some sort of bang, and pressing on the gas just revved up the engine with no power output to the wheels. This happens in every gear except 4th, which still works normally for some reason.
I tend to do all the repairs myself on the Jeep, but by no means am I an expert (especially related to clutch/transmission work). From what I’ve searched I would guess that my clutch failed, but maybe it could be a transmission failure too.
Should I start with replacing either of the clutch cylinders, or the entire clutch assembly? Or does it sound like my transmission is blown?
Let me know if any other details are needed, and thanks for the help.
