Hey Guys... I've been busy with school and the wife and I just had a baby as well. The CJ has been parked for about 4 months down here in hot and humid Florida, in the driveway, soft top and doors.

I went out Monday evening to take her for a spin and get her back on the road. When I went to start her the manual shifter was stuck/jammed up. I worked it a bit and was able to break her free; I backed out of the driveway, got around the corner and could not get it out of second gear.

It'll be tomorrow before I can get in there and take the covers off to get down in the shifter area, but would a shot of lithium grease do the trick?

Other options? Thanks gear heads! I have yet to consult my rebuild manual... that is step 2 in the event I don't get a reply here. I'm getting back to work and will check in this evening to see the replys.

Appreciate the assistance! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
