Hey guys, I have my 1996 GCL, love it, but unfortunately it seems to be developing this slight issue where the tranny (or possibly transfer case) seems to be slipping..or feels like it. Going uphill, on occasion, it will seem to stutter, like it kicks into second then attempts to shift higher, falls back down, attempts higher.. hard to describe but it's noticeable, my guess is something is loose, seeing as the exhaust is..well..broken in several locations and vibrates the floor quite significantly. I noticed alot of my interior panel screws were unscrewing themselves due to vibration.. Thoughts, comments? I replaced the Transmission fluid and filter roughly three months ago with a rigid gasket direct from mopar, and ATF +4 automatic Transmission Fluid. (good stuff, I believe it was high-mileage as well even though the vehicle has 130kmi on it).
Any assistance or thoughts would be great.
