[QUOTE="NightShade, post: 2816503, member: 29706"] I would suggest pulling the tranny dipstick and seeing what the fluid looks like. My guess is that if you did downshift something went out and it's not going to be a simple change one part fix. My guess is that if you drop the pan you will see a good amount of metal in the filter and on the magnet. you could get lucky and have it be a shift solenoid but I kinda doubt it. Especially if it will not move on it's own power. The good news is that they used that transmission for quite a while and on a lot of vehicles. Looked on ebay and there was a used one for 600 so if you do a little searching can probably get one for a decent price. Rebuild kits are around 300 if you have the time and knowhow and remans are around 2k. Probably find a shop that can do the rebuild for around 1000 or so. As far as a Mopar Reman I would guess on it being a lot more than 2k so there it depends on how much you want to spend. Don't know the value of the vehicle so can't advise what to do. If the vehicle is worth less than a reman tranny or not much more and you can't do the work I would say it's time to part it out. [/QUOTE]
