Automatics and CJs never went well together. Throw in that abysmal Quadratrac and have a recipe for problems.
A lady that is in the building across from me has a Chrysler minivan that is about paid off. According to her the transmission makes loud noises sometimes and acts really strange but the mechanics can’t find the problem.
I guess Chrysler could never copy the C4/6 or the Turbo 350.
Chrysler engineering was something else in their heyday, nobody was better. We’re a long way past that heyday, by decades. They’re still arrogant though. It’s the NIH syndrome. Not invented here.
