Default Shifting issue

12 rubi on an aev 3.5 lift with 35s. No body lift.

Every once in a while when I go from 4 lo to 2wd and then into drive my trans acts like it is only half way in gear. Revs hi barely.moves.

If I wait about 1 min or shift thru the range.of gears it goes back to normal. Now today doing tight turns going between drive and rev it would act.like it was in neutral. If I ran the shifter again it stopped being silly.

Is there an issue with the factory shifter that I don't know about?

I've had the same problem once in awhile. Dealer hasn't heard of this problem. I've seen it posted on several forums. 2012 Rubicon auto
