Moving Tcase shifter linkage

[Fudd]

I know there are kits for TJs to move the linkage for the tcase shifter off the body onto the tranny or the transfer case. I haven't been able to find one of these for XJs. Anybody know of one? My linkage is all beat up and I'm fed up with the design of it anyway.

thanks

I have a feeling someone misread it as it being asked for a TJ application and not an XJ one.....

I did my own version of this, but later went to a simpler yet linkage. I redid the lever on the t-case and made it point up. I also redid the lever on the body tunnel by cutting the lower half off and rotating it 180 degrees and welding it back on. Finally, I now have a straight rod from the tunnel lever to the t-case lever. It's been working well for a year or so now. I mainly did it to provide clearance for my hidden long arm 3 link upper link rod and mount, but I it works well as a stand alone mod too. The in cab lever still works in the same exact fashion as stock in that 2wd is all the way forward and 4wd low is all the way back. Jeff

Goatman mentioned to me at JV that he changed his np231 linkage with small heims but I forgot to actually crawl under and look at it... maybe we can get him to post a picture.... oh Riiiichard...

I got one, it rocks, install tips... not too many (appart from following instructions): they made it so easy now by giving you a flexible rod to model your shifter rod.
