i have a 97 auto,rwd,recently the trans fluid went low and i started hearing a grinding noise in the bell housing, i filled the trans. with fluid, it lasted for a week, i would hear the grinding noise only when the overdrive switch was off, anyway the trans finally gave up, it doesn't go into drive or reverse, if it does you have to rev the rpm high in order for it to move. i went to the junkyards all i saw was 4 x 4 trans. can i use the the 4 x 4 trans by swapping the rear tail from the 4 x4 to the rwd ?. i can't figure out if the torque converter got screwed up or the trans oil pump- thanks for the help

thanks to everyone on the forum,this write up really helped, i changed my girlfriend's timing belt with 193k miles, can't believe it didn't snap, had to do it twice because the waterpump i replaced was leaking
