Default Transmission adjustment

If I put the jeep in drive it shifts through the gears fine, but if I put it in 1,2 it stays in 1st gear. So is there some kind of adjustment somewhere to where I can fix this?

That's normal. It'll shift to 2'nd when you hit 3500 RPM or so.

I don't have a rpm gauge so I'm not really sure what it runs at but if I put it in 1,2 I can get to about 25 mph and it still stays in 1st. And it sounds like its running pretty darn fast lol
