1988 silverado will not go into drive

Probably broke your U-Joints on your driveshaft, preventing the rear wheels from turning. Your driveshaft might have disengaged from your differential too. check underneath concentrating on the driveshaft and differential

I just replaced rear axle bearings on a 2000 silverado it is still on jack stands,i can spin rear wheels but truck is in park. cannot spin drive shaft

The truck is in park, this means the parking pawl is engaged to keep the wheels
from moving and it locks the transmission/ driveshaft. Try putting it in neutral instead.

My 1992 wrangler won't roll at all. It starts fine, and stays running but when I try to put it in gear it stalls out. Even in neutral, I can't seem to push it to get it rolling. Any suggestions?

This sounds bad, even in neutral it stalls, you cant even push it. i would start by putting the transfer case selector in neutral and see if it rolls, if this jeep is only two wheel drive then start by jack the front wheels up and do this for the four wheel drive also, this is to see if its in the trany or the wheel, check and see if you can spin the wheels in the front, if this is two wd then if the wheels dont spin then you have a problem with the brakes but what concerns me is that it stalls in neutral, i would have to say the problem is in the trany and if this is a stick shift trany i would say the clutch broke and will not release but when its in neutral it should roll. anyway do the same in the rear wheels, jack them up and see if the wheels move, if they dont then remove the driveshaft at the rearend and then see if the wheels move. if the wheels turn with shaft off then theres a problem with the trany oor transfer case if its 4wd, if its 2wheel drive then its something in the trany, if the wheels dont spin with shaft off then start truck and see if it still stalls but dont let it go into gear with driveshaft off you will not be able to stop driveshaft when disconnected, just see if it stalls in neutral. good luck.

I have a 2000 z 71 all leds work replaced frt axel motor and wtched it work while out it goes in low range but still in 2 wheel drive like the frt end wont engage is there any thing eles i can look at ...

Check the transfer case. Put a jack under the rear axle and jack up the rear wheels. Have a helper put in 4 wheel and the trans in drive. Have him/her ease off the brake and see if the rear wheels spin. If they spin, 4x4 isn't working. If the truck tries to pull forward with the rear wheels up then it works. Now, if the rear wheels are spinning carefully look under the truck and see if the front driveshaft is spinning along with the rear driveshaft. If the front shaft is spinning then it is an axle problem. If the front shaft is not spinning then it is a transfer case problem. GM has a problem with the NP263 case.

When I put my 2004 chevy tahoe in gear the rear end makes a loud whinning noise and does nothing then in with clack loud and catch and start going?????

A few broken ring gear teeth will cause that. BUT it wouldn't go very far till it made a whole lot more noise. The transmission will make lots of noises and can cause the same symptons you are complaining about. If it's 4x4 try and put it in four wheel drive and see what happens, don't drive far, that will help narrow it down between trans and rear end. If it's not 4x4 then if you can, remove the rear drive line, jack up the rear tires so they are off the ground and try and spin the rear pinion drive flange (the thing that the drive line was bolted to). It should spin fairly freely (it will have some drag) if you feel any binding or grinding then the problem is in the rear end.
Report back with your findings so we can better assist you.
P.S. both will be a big job and unless you have experiance working on these type of jobs then it will most likly be best left to someone who know what they are doing.

SOURCE: Chevy Tahoe 2001

Place vehicle in 4wd (high or low). This will hold the front drive shaft still for the rest of the test. Jack up the front end of the vehicle. Remove the actuator. Have a buddy spin the right front wheel while you use a long punch or screwdriver to try to manually engage the diff. The left front wheel should spin in the other direction if the diff is good. Also before you check the diff you need to grab the front driveshaft and make sure it is locked, If it spins freely when the truck is in park and in 4wd with the front end raised then problem is in transfer case. If you can't make the diff engage manually with punch then the problem is in the diff. If front diff engages manually then the problem is the actuator. Hope this helps..

When you turn the ignition key to the on position can you hear the fuel pump running?
The fuel pumps are notorious for failing. The fuel pump is located in the gas tank and you'll have to drop the tank to replace it.
