    rebuild transmission for 94 GC

    Hi all, the transmission in my 94 GC is shot. It won't get out of first. I
    don't know how much it will cost to have pulled and repaired. It's been
    going south for a good solid year. First it was hard to get into 3rd, had
    to modulate the gas. Then it became impossible to get out of first once the
    transmission fluid had a few minutes to warm up.

    I was thinking that a fully rebuild/reman transmission might be cheaper then
    the labor to pull the current trans and then have to repair it and get new
    parts. Are there any places in the US that sell fully assembled
    transmissions for this vehicle? It's got the I6 and has part time AWD.

    Since it has the I6 then it might have the AW4 Asin transmission like the
    I6 Cherokees have but I'm not sure. However they are considered bullet
    proof. If it were a Cherokee it could be the Throttle Position Sensor on the
    throttle body. You my want to try it. It's a ten minute, $30 fix. What
    happens is the Transmission Control Unit thinks you have your foot to the
    floor and won't shift untill it gets maxed out on the RPM's. Also if it is a
    AW4 then it DOES NOT use Chrysler fluid. It uses Dexron. Lots of confusion
    and mis information here on trans fluid.

    If this is a duplicate please ignore as a error occured as I was sending the
    original. First you might have the ASIN AW4 transmission as it's a I6. They
    are considered bullet proof. And if you do try the Throttle Postion Sensor.
    If it's bad the transmission controler thinks your foot is constantlly on
    the floor and won't shift till the rpm's are maxed out. This is a common
    problem on the I6 Cherokees with automatic. A $30 ten minute fix. Also they
    use Dexron fluid, not the Chrysler type.

    Well this is actually the 3rd transmission. It went out at 35k miles,
    repaired under warranty, then it went out around 70 or 80k I think, repaired
    out out of pocket. Now it's at 140k miles but it's been slowly going south
    for a good 10-15k miles. I don't know which box it is. Is there an easy
    way to check?

    That sounds like a Chrysler tranny not a Asin AW4! I'm not sure how to tell.
    I got a build sheet from the dealer on my 96 xj and it listed everything
    including the transmission type.

    My Haynes manual says the three speed auto trans. ID #'s are stamped on
    the LEFT side of the transmission case just above the pan.

    The AW4 transmission ID "tag" is located on the RIGHT rear side of the
    case and is an ID tag with numbers stamped to identifym transmission.

    ESM did pass the time by typing: 

    If it's just the valve body, that's an easy repair (or replace). Don't even
    need to drop the tranny.

    try
    http://www.chryslerpartsdirect.com/moparonline.htm
    for OEM without the OEM markup. (I have had good
    experiences dealing with them)
