Is it full? Check hot idling in Neutral after cycling thru the gears. Filter plugged? Linkage connected? Wrong fluid?

Thanks for all the info guys. I'm done with it i gave in and took it to a shop. I am not a transmission guy and don't know much about them. Plus this is also my daily/play toy so I can't be working on it for ever I already put more money and time into than I wanted. Again appreciate all the help any way.

Is it a miss print saying you have a 42 RE? In a 1993 Jeep I don't think they offered the RE yet, I could be wrong, I know for sure the 46 RH was used in 93 and the 46 RE came out in 1996? I know the 46 RE was only in a jeep in 98, but I'm just pointing out the RE's were later. Is that a tranny you put in or is it original? If that year isn't supposed to have an RE that could be a problem, the governor wouldn't work and it would probably slip the tranny and ruin the clutches or build up heat and break something else.

it is the 42re I have the 4.0 and it used to be awd but i swapped the transfer case out. the trans was burned up from driving it from san diego to nashville loaded down. I was hoping that wasn't the case but oh well **** happens. I was trying to rule out all the other possibilities before I got to that point.
