Replying to: Berry_zik (Dec 27, 2008 6:53 am) The transmission contribution to stalling would have to be something like a locked torque converter, a stuck front or kickdown band, or excessive hydraulic pressure. Excessive pressure could be caused by a defective Govenor Pressure Sensor or even a dirty valve body. A locked torque converter would cause stalling in a forward gear and probably also present you with some harsh overall shifts. A stuck band (applied mode) could be caused by a stuck servo. My apologies, that's all I can think of at the moment. Best regards, Dusty

Replying to: texmedic (Dec 27, 2008 11:25 am) If the converter was bad you wouldn't have a first or reverse. Because of the age of your vehicle, I would first check the electrical connections at the transmission for corrosion. If you loose the circuit to the valve body or electronic governor it will cause this problem. This is very common on older vehicles, especially those in high moisture/snowy environments. Beyond that you could have an inoperative front servo (broken or stuck) or a bad kickdown band. Regards, Dusty

I have a 97 Dodge ram 1500 4x4 short box. When I put it in 4 wheel drive it sqeaks in the front end and sometimes when it is in 2 wheel drive. Can anyone give suggestions of what the problem may be? Thank you.
