Jeep with strange shifting automatic from a 1982 300sd

OK, I have a week to work out some bugs (After my exam on Monday I have a week to work out issues and get to the field)

I got a 1982 300SD engine and tranny in my Jeep (http://bb.bc4x4.com/showthread.php?t=123204)

It goes through a NP205 divorced transfercase and then to two 4:09 gear axles (Turning 33 inch skinnys).

Problems:
-Shifts great when cold, but you have to lift off the accelerator.
-warms up and seems to stick in higher gears (hard to go uphill in forth at 15km/h) (and by hills I am talking 11% for 30km).
-you cannot manually shift it at all?

Solutions I am thinking:
-Change filter and fluid (tranny was fine in the car and came out as a unit)
-Check and fix the vacuum system
-It has electrical connections at the moment??? Should it?
-????????
