OK, I drive a 1990 Jeep pick up with a 5 Speed Transmission. The other day while getting off the highway, my pick up started making a loud clanging noise, and when I shifted gears, I could feel a strong vibration in the stick shift. I dropped it off with a mechanic, and the next day, he called and said I need a new transmission, and he could rebuild this one for 1,500 dollars. I told him I couldn't afford it right now, and I picked my my truck and slowly drove home. I called another mechanic, and he said that it might not be that serious, and to see if I can shift through all the gears, because if I could it might just be out of transmission fluid. Well, I went out and shifted through all the gears without any problem, and anyway which mechanic is right? How serious does this sound? Thanks!!!
