We bought this jeep for 200 bucks, the guy my mother in law works with thought the motor was bad, it wad just the harmonic weight. Got that fixed and did major tune up while at it. When I took her for her first trip around the block, no shifts. It acts like my yj in low gear, when throttled it lunges. Any body got any clues. I really need it on the road. Wife is daily driving my f 250 tow rig st 11 mpgs and this grand would be a nice car for her.

It doesn't move at all or doesn't shift out of 1st?

It moves, lunges, really touchy throtel. Reverse is fine but won't come out of first while driving

Check and clean any connections. Also, check the shift linkage to make sure it is correct. I had a tranny problem kind of similar to that about a year ago, and ended up having to swap it out.
