    Can you put in your OEM converter and see what happens. I imagine your gonna have to get a complete tranny flush or tear down to make sure all the metal bits are out of there. UGGGH bud I hate that this is happening to you I have yet to see anyone real happy with any aftermarket converter on the Jeep I know Sarge went thru like 3 or 4 just trying to figure out which one worked with his 426. Let me ask JTSRT what he has in his I believe HHP did the install.

    Inital thoughts is that the converter took a metallic dump inside the trans. Won't know for sure until the converter folks tear apart this unit and see the particulars. The cost to clean out the current trans and replace cooler, bypass, and something else (can't remember) is going to be a pretty penny, so Eddie and Bill hooked me up with one of their high torque babies :)
