cant shift to 4l and if i get it into i cant get it out of
« on: December 28, 2013, 04:14:42 PM »
i am a new jeep member and i have a 3 inch body lift 6 inch suspension lift 1 inch motor mount and a high clearance skidplate and when i try and get it into 4l the bars on the 4wd bracket contact eachother and prevent fully shifting into 4l and if i get it into 4l then i can get it back to 2 high??
  maybe i need to take off the 4wd drop bracket entirely or just drill new holes for it to pivot from but im just wondering if you guys have any suggestions
thanks

that's a lot of lift lol, have u tried the adjustment that you have on the jeep? im sure its not adjusted at the right hight and causing it to bind

see its scraping the correction plat where the lever is that connect to in cab 4wd shifter i believe its because the correction plat makes the center level rod thing at too great of an angle  im thinking i might just slightly bend the top of that part that holds that rod

just so you guys know i  just drilled two bolt holes approximately where it scraps and it straightened the middle lever bar and prevented scrape allowed shifting
