RE: 97 Cherokee transmission service
Yes, fluid levels were good. Was driving it then all the sudden its like it wasnt downshiftin when put in drive. I stopped at a stop sign then when i went to take off it wouldnt go. Dropped it down into 1st 2nd and it went.
Thanks for the symptom with what it was doing. I looked that up and is common on Jeep cause lots of people with a no downshift trans issue. You also need to check the TPS throttle position sensor for proper voltages with a voltmeter as this controls the tranny shifting. The TPS voltages are into the ECU not the TCU trans controller. Also found a few links you should read.

http://midsouthjeeps.com/forum/topic/260-automatic-transmission-wont-downshift/ this is about a plugged vent hole (plugged with mud)

governor pressure solenoid and sensor, under filter tray that you just did
So this is 3-4 more things to check. Lots of other people have had this problem too. good luck.
