I had to look in your profile. The current heep is a 1990?
The auto tranny is shifted electronically, the TCU is behind the passenger side lower dash. The tranny problem could be something so simple as a broken wire or dirty connector. Good things to look at first.
The axle is a different can of worms.

Pull and clean the NSS. The range selector signal goes through it.

Neutral Safety Switch.
Searching here or visiting http://www.go.jeep-xj.info/ will get you the info you need about servicing the NSS.

Sorry to hear about the problem!! Now I know why you were not at NTRIII. Do like everyone has suggested and hopefully you will be back on the road. I just had issues like yours never did pin point the problem, just went away.............. ECM probably but not sure...:dunno:

Additives? WTF?
How's some junk in a bottle gonna help it shift?
Keep that silly shit outta your slush box until you get it looked at.

Yep.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHH...
i have some researching/work to do...
i read that write up YELLA linked to..and the connector is in the motor compartment...i know mine(motor compartment) is SUPER dirty in there....can you just pull that plug apart and clean that to see if it helps THEN if needed pull apart and clean piece on the tranny?

no wories frank i am going to try and take a look at my NSS...lol...i AM listenin...just no time yet/...doing axle swap and then tryin to look at tranny tonight..(work again tomorrow..so much for day off...)
but i jsut found something...
there was a hose/line hangin from my jeep....fell around the cross member...it was really dry and cracked and thats about right when the jeep started this stupid nop shift crap...is there any relavant vacuum lines/hoses on outside of tranny that could cause some issues too?
any pics of tanyy and or vaccum lines would be great if ya have any..im searchin too.....thanks

Nope, the AW4 doesn't use vacuum to control any part of it. Now, the transfer case does on most models - there's 4 colored plastic lines that run between the transfer case and the front disco vacuum unit to control when the axle connects/disconnects.
What it looks like from the pic to me is that your t-case breather hose came off of the metal hook-shaped tube that is usually bolted to the transmission bellhousing on the high pass. side right near where the dipstick runs down. That won't affect transmission shifting or performance. I imagine if you get under the XJ you'll be able to follow that hose to the top of the t-case on the driver's side.
