Good luck.

I have a 1991 Sahara 4.0 manual. I can drive the jeep for about 10-15 minutes with everything shifting fine, but then when the jeep seems to be warmed up, I cannot shift into any gear.
Please help.
Thanks
When was it last changed, and what with?
If you can rebuild it yourself then that's the way to go, otherwise you need to get on the phone to local transmission shops and compare their prices and labor rates......check online too.
There is no clear cut answer I'm afraid.
However the open diff in the front axle will always put power to the wheel with the least traction.
One wheel will always spin more freely than the other on the same axle, usually because one disc brake is binding a little more than the other, therefore the diff will continue to send power to the wheel that spins the easiest.
I'm assuming this scenario takes place with all four wheels off the ground?
So we know it's not a failing clutch.
Have you checked for codes?
I have a 2000 jeep wrangler, automatic, 4.0, 6cyl, I have a problem of it shifting going down the road. I'll be driving and all of a sudden it drops outa gear, lose power then jerk and kick back into gear. I changed the trans oil and filter butu still have the problem can someone please help.
Other possibilities are a bad govenor, bad pump or air leak on suction side, front band misadjusted, clutch or servo failure.
Probably not what you wanted to hear, but the cause is almost certainly abuse (overheating or water intrusion), or lack of maintenance.
Your transmission, the 32RH, is the final development of the Torqueflite 999 and is as close to bulletproof as it's possible to be.
The good news is that parts are readily available and most transmission shops have a good understanding of them.
As a general point, most automatic problems are due to lack of maintenance or abuse.
On this particular transmission, maintenance consists of just changing the fluid and filter, and making adjustments.
It should be performed every 37.5Kmiles or 30 months, although I like the follow the 'severe duty' schedule which is every 12K miles. It's very cheap insurance!
In my experience though, the transmission is rarely ever serviced. :sick:
Note: a transmission flush is NO SUBSTITUTE FOR A SERVICE, and can often cause problems of it's own.
Depends on whether if it was a body lift, suspension lift, or a combination of the two.
When you say it won't go into gear, do you mean the shift lever won't move, or that with the shift lever in the correct position the transmission won't engage?
4" susp. lift kicks out of 2nd gear
I have heard to raise engine to adjust driveshaft angle;
does this seem correct or am I reaching ?
ideas?
Only if it worries you!
Smarten it up with a $4 can of aluminum paint from Home Depot.
Otherwise, save up and plan to replace the muffler in the next five to ten years.
When you put it in 4WD did you engage 4H or 4L, and were you able to disengage it ok?
