help: Transfer Case Dropped / now I can't shift to 4HI
Hi all, I just installed a rubicon express 3.5" lift, which included a 1" Trasfer Case Drop. I had posted a while back asking if anyone knew a good 4x4 shop do it for me, but it looked like everyone suggested I do it myself - so I did. Came out pretty nice, was easier than I thought - with just a couple of snags along the way. Anyway - Here's my current problem. I can't seem to use the 4x4 shifter to shift into 4HI. I can barely get it to where the 4x4 light goes on, and it falls out after driving a short distance. Is this normal after dropping the transfer case? Is there something I can do to remedy this, aside from removing the transfer case drop and bringing it to the stock height. I know I could do that with a slip yoke eliminator, and longer drive shaft - but I was thinking something cheaper... I don't really suffer from vibes so don't really want to go that route just for this. It's a '03 TJ 6 cyl. Thanks in advance for any help. -- Mike Mike NY / Long Island '03 Wrangler X - Freedom Edition ----- Posted via http://www.wranglergear.com |

Hi Mike,
Shift lever is now hitting the floor boards, adjust the linkage, or lengthen the hole.

It's no biggie to adjust the linkage. Take a peek under the Jeep, look at
the linkage and you should be able to figure it out.

Yup, makes me wonder if it's up on stilts.
