Where can I find the spider gears
If I were to check the spider gears, how do I gian access to them, and do I need to pull the entire transmission off to get to them. I am still not sure what to check next. it's a 2003 Stratus, 3.0 manual R/T, 5 speed. Makes a grinding sound not constant, but as it drives, it will slip and you will hear a real bad grinding sound.
I could use some help with this pretty bad.
Thanks

The Clutch
Not sure if it makes a difference or not, but the clutch seems to work fine, I can put it in any gear with no problems, it's not difficult to get it to go into gear, and it will start off smooth enough, but when I apply the fuel it will start off alright, and then after about a second or two it will skip and I will hear some pretty bad grinding noises, and then it goes away, and will resurface every once in a while, (no rhythem, just every so often) so I'm not sure where to start. Looks like I gotta get a haynes or a chiltons.

Shifting
It happens in pretty much any gear, and to be honest, I would like to say that it happens like everytime that I gass it, or everytime that i let off the gas after getting going, but it's just so arbitrary as to how it happens. When I get home today, I'll have a look at the fluid levels, and then see if I can get a chiltons, so I can find the bearings that you mentioned earlier. Any other ideas based on what gear it is in when the grinding happens???
