What kind of transmission does a 1997 GMC Jimmy have?
Mine is a 1997 Jimmy 4×4. When it is cold outside, the transmission shift hard from 1-2 and takes quite awhile (as well as a low speed) to shift from 2-3-4. The RPM needle shakes violently back and forth thus preventing the vehicle to obtain speed. The vehicle WILL shift eventually, but this make going up a slight hill very slow and time consuming.

The linkage going into the tranny; I can shift into drive and back into neutral by hand, no more either direction. The little stainless looking bar above it connected with a spring moves freely without anything else moving and when I shift into different gears it doesn’t move either.
