sometimes slips out of 2nd after T-case Drop
I searched for a thread on this but couldnt find one.....i just put a 4 inch lift on my 5 speed xj, and since i didnt have the money, i got a T-case drop instead of an SYE (for now) but now, when im in second gear, and kind of in 4th, it isnt in there solid. if i shift to second, and if i am not REALLY intentional, just kind of put it there, it will sometimes slip out if i let off the gas, and it feels kind of the same way in 4th, just not as bad, and i havent had it slip out of 4th yet. its not bad enough to where it constantly does it, and i could deal with it if i cant fix it, but it would be nice if i could get it fixed. i havent got a chance to get under and look at it, cuz of the 20 degree weather, but anyone else had this? or know how to remedy it? i know it probably is a simple adjustment, just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction. thanks guys

i dont think it is, there isnt anything i can see, but when i shift into second, it feels like shifting when its really cold (like 10-15 degrees) and feels like the fluid is really thick, but it always is like that, even warm.....its like when i did my t case drop it made it is right at the edge of the linkage, and needs to be adjusted or something.....i still haven't got a chance to look under it yet. it doesnt prevent driving, i just have to hold it in second gear when downshifting or if i let off the gas. its not a big deal, i would just like to get it fixed, and im also curious if anyone else has had this happen
