sounds like the solenoid in the trans. jeeps around your year are known for this, theres a screen that gets blocked on the solenoid. they reccomend replacing them instead of trying to clean them. makes good sense to replace fluid and filter at the same time. after you drop the pan the solenoid is on the pass. side of trans and it's electrical.
