[QUOTE="Brad G, post: 426803, member: 19072"] Thank you for your help. The cup is down and to the left and it will move to the center position but still in the down position. Sometimes it will even go to the right but not very often. When I start it and let out on the clutch it tries to go forward and even in 4L it dies because it’s too high of a gear to take off from a stop so I pretty sure it’s in 5th. It took a lot of working the shifter to get it out of reverse and somehow went straight into 5th. I don’t know why 5th gear even exist in wrangler with a 2.5 engine, it’s not necessary and never used. I have been wanting to upgrade for a long time so maybe this is a sign that’s its time for a V6 and auto tranny. I will have to research it and see what that will consist of. I will still have to fix this ax5 so I can sell it since it’s a fresh rebuild. I did the nutter bypass and was hoping for a little more power but the 2.5 just isn’t made for power lol [/QUOTE]
