Just recently bought a 96 jeep cherokee with a blown motor. Then bought a 98 wreck with a good motor. Decided to just swap the motor and transmission since it looked so easy to get out in one piece. Well, had to change a few plugs on the transmission, and use the old carb from the 96 on the 98 in order for the TPS to plug in, had to remove one of the plugs from the old transmission and splice in onto the new, the wires were the same count and color so didn't see a problem there. Once swap was completed, the engine fired up, no problem. Tried the first test drive and it goes into all the gears fine, into 4wd fine, reverse fine, just shifts into Overdrive way too soon! and will not downshift if you mash the gas.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Also, have tons of spare parts from the 98 and the left over transmission from the 96,
thanks,
