I've got myself a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited. I towed my wifes car over 2300 miles with it...

ur a scumbag m8

Sometimes it's just a plugged filter, so the fluid change allows the filter to be changed too.

OP here. I just re checked the tranny fluid and its still pretty pinkish red.

Recheck the trans then, it's probably fine.

Mechanically the trans should be fine.. it was built for rougher duty than what you did. its the trans used in ram truck 5.7s.

Fluid and filter change then see how it does.
Also does the fluid smell like crayons?

FWIW, the WJ has a retarded OD Off program that locks the converter at 30mph unless at 80 percent throttle or greater. Under normal operation converter lock-up is 47 or 53 mph depending on load. I can't imagine how slow the thing would be towing with a locked converter trying to climb out of the hole from 30mph. Even not towing you find yourself wishing they'd chosen 35mph instead of 30.

I have an 02 Durango with the same Trans and you can keep it unlocked pretty easily while towing, you just have to learn the trigger points. Mine will unlock with a good gap before it'll kick down. Then just modulate throttle to keep it unlocked. The ridiculous axle ratios are a bigger problem than the lockup

you're a fucking idiot
you can buy a level 3 kit and just rebuild the trans

that clutch pack is definitely warn

but OPs an idiot too because he doesn't mention shit about what exact vehicle he has

he probably never changed any fluids
