your best bet would be to find a used one you can just throw in instead of doing a rebuild. You can put in a 4 speed maunel with no problems but you'd probabally be happier with the 5

I have the same problem with my 97 Jimmy, just spoke with a Transmission Tech and he said they probably didn't remove the cross-member to get at the last 2 bolts that are hidden by it and probably damaged the solenoids on the bottom valve body when they wriggled the bottom pan off. If you take your Jimmy in to have they engine scanned (free at all Advance Auto Parts stores) it should give the codes to tell you this. Hope this helps.

I wouldn't go anywhere near it. Beyond possible water damage, transmissions don't ordinarily become submerged without serious stress on the entire system.

I have a 99 GMC Jimmy a couple of weeks ago the check engine light came on and it started to hesitate when I would accelerate from a stop. I took it to auto zone they could not read anything the thing in my car they hook the machine up to is messed up. Anyways my car now dies. I start it and it goes a little bit then dies again. Has anyone had this happen to them? Does anyone know what it might be?

Hi, I have a buddy with a 95 jimmy that's doing the exact same thing. Any chance you ever figured out what was causing the problem?
 
My friend is a disabled Vietnam vet and on a budget so i was hoping i could help him out with this.
 
  Thanks

1998 jimmy trans surge in drive by phillski86

i've got a 1998 jimmy with 2wd only, the transmission seems to surge between gears when at 45 mph and up. it feels like it down shifts for a second, then finds the correct gear again. it does this every five seconds or so even when its on cruise control... anyone got a suggestion?

I never could figure out what was wrong with mine and finally traded it in - didnt want to spend $800 on a torque converter and that not even be my problem.
