I have a 93 4x4 5.2 and sometimes it will slam into drive when I shift from park or from park to reverse. I hate that feeling and that sound.

That would make sense mudslinger. Why did dodoge put the exhaust pipe so it is touching the tranny pan?

My 89 Dak V6 auto o/d did that if I drove around town without locking the o/d out. If I parked it nose slightly up, then put it in reverse it would SMASH itself into reverse. I had to put it in neutral first, then reverse to keep it from doing that.
I lost first and second gear one night. Had a warranty job done on it, MEGA BUCKS.
The cure so far, lock out the o/d under 40mph.

Just lock it out below 35 or 40, the engine doesn't werk as hard, AND it may save yer tranny. It appears to be an overheating problem.
