Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 97 jeep Cherokee sport 2wd 6 cylinder .
Sometimes it won't crank unless I put it in neutral
also sometimes it won't move in reverse or drive
any ideas?

perhaps the transmission or motor mounts are defective and separating now~ jack the motor and transmission with a floorjack...a defective mount will show the separation~
