Went out wheeling. Dad took his Wrangler 
(lame) my buddy took his k5 blazer and me in the XJ. Found out the k5 blazer's 4x4 didn't work after he got stuck lol. I messed up my transmission because it doesn't want to downshift.

not insulting your intelligence in any way, i had a similar thing happen on my camaro and had no idea i had this, but have you checked the TV cable? its basically a "kickdown" cable if you know older vehicles. there are videos on adjusting them, and it's possible you snapped yours off or something. If not, hope someone else has a suggestion

I got introduced to upper rear shock bolts The 2 on the drivers side both spun on me. 1 on the passenger side broke and the other spun. It was loads of fun!
Thanks to the posts on this exact situation I was able to get er done.
And to top it off....had a lower bolt break as well!

Didn't insult my intelligence. People get a little bent out of shape when people start throwing suggestions out there and its really hard via thee internet. But I appreciate the help. I haven't messed with it in any way except I checked the trans fluid and its good. Checking the rest out in the morning when there's light.

Test fitted one of my 33s. No lift yet, but I wanted to see it. More trimming and some bumpstops, and I wouldn't even need to lift the front!
