Hello, of course I'm new here. I have a 71 cj5 v6 225 . All original as far as I can tell. It sat for a long time. Previous owner purchased it new but sadly went blind. His wife left it under a tarp hoping one of his sons would bring it back to life one day but they had no interest in it and here we are. I cleaned the tank and lines changed the oil got a set of points and it runs fine. But 2nd gear pops out. I pulled tranny took it to trsnny shop 1,300.00 to rebuild. Cheap enouph but put it back in. Drive a mile and the rear drive shaft comes loose internally from transfer case. That brake and all . Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Also what kit is suggested for replacing the points to electronic?
