Sounds to me like the shift linkage got misaligned and jammed up on you. You'll need to get under the Jeep and straighten it out.

No worries. My XJ actually has the AW4 auto tranny but, I had a hopped up Chevy Nova in my younger days with a 4-speed. It did this same thing after too many speed shifts into 2nd...LOL. It should just take a minor linkage tweak to get you going again. if you have any other questions just ask.

According to this picture it looks like the ax-15 is internally shifted and therefore can't be adjusted. It sounds/looks like you have some internal damage. Someone experienced with the ax-15 will have to advise further diagnosis procedures.

Blue is correct. Guess I should have kept quiet about what I don't know.
