Default Help on Clutch or Gear Issue?

Hello fellow Jeepers.. I can't get my Jeep into gear, Its a 2010 JKU 6spd., I was doing light Mudding and felt my clutch slip while on 4low...I stopped and put it back on 2 wd and it would not engage back into gear.. Make along story short.. Even when in gear the jeep just doesn't move.Anyone have a clue? Thanks in advance

Your clutch is more than likely toast. Unless you heard some grinding an popping in the rear end when you were in the mud. You shouldn't ride the clutch at all in low you will easily burn it

The transfer case shifter isn't flopping around is it? (as if it's not actually engaging any drive modes?) Its easy to break the plastic piece that holds the cable to the actuator arm at the transfer case end of things. That's an easy fix...

If the clutch is gone, the tranny and transfer case should shift gears like normal -- but little to no power will reach the wheels.

He's asking if the lever you use to shift into 4wd flops back and forth like it's not connected to the linkage.
