yes I jacked it up the clanking noise is coming from the trans.The motor runs fine,when i shift the lever from revers to forward nothing happens.thanks for any help.I went out and played with a little more. I have found that it drives in low range but not in hi or reverse.I'm sure something let go inside just not sure what
