Need advice: Transmission slipping when parked (1 Viewer)

[Anvil]

Yesterday I removed the front driveshaft to replace ujoints and cv joint in my 97 Fzj80. I have not yet reinstalled the drive shaft. I parked the rig on a slight incline last night, and this morning, it had moved two vehicle lengths over night. Why is it doing this? What do I need to repair besides the parking brake, which is high on my list. I've never had a problem until I removed the front drive shaft. Is this common?

Thanks!

Parking pawl question, Where is it in the tranny?

I ask because I lifted up DS font wheel and my truck stated to leave! I was not expecting that. I've worked on a pile of US 4X4's and if they are in park you can do anything you want to the front end. Because of the VC for the all wheel drive I figured the LX would be the same as any other...
