Welcome to CF. What size motor do you have? If you have the 4.0 you need to watch buying cheap headers as they have a tendency to crack. An intake system such as AEM,K&N are available but there is debate about how well they filter. And filtering ablity is more important than a few HP when you are offroad.

Go get a trans flush/filter change, could just be your pan gasket

I'm just up I81 north of you. Been to the spring and fall nationals at the dragstrip several times. Salem is right next to Roanoke.
