Lost Low End Power in Drive
Went offroading drove over some thick tree logs had to put in 4wd. Got back on level surface to disengage 4wd. Noticed when I took off I barely had any power. Put it in reverse and had my normal. Put it in 1st gear it was in between. It will get up to speed though. I also have brown, badly smelling tranny fluid that I have not changed yet, but never had a problem til now. So before I start digging into the internals, anyone have any ideas?

change the fluid, may wanna do it a couple of times, also make sure your kick down cable is set properly. i had the same problem, thought i was over heating the trans, but come to find out my kick down wasnt adjusted properly and was actually starting off in second gear. try that see if it helps.
