Email Address Email address is invalid One of the weak points of the Jeep JK Wrangler is the transfer case shift linkage. Learn how to fix it for good. This article applies to the Jeep Wrangler JK (2007-Present). One of the biggest complaints among Jeep JK owners is the inferior engineering and manufacturing that Jeep used in making the transfer case shift linkage. While this appears to be a trivial thing at first glance, this shift linkage will go out without warning and at the worst possible time. This will leave the driver either stuck in 2WD, 4WD or not moving at all and stuck in neutral. While there is no warning given as to when the linkage is going to fail, you can be prepared by learning ahead of time how to fix it and be rather quick about it. The great news is that this is a very cheap and easy fix to do on your own; however, a professional is going to charge you a pretty penny to do what you can easily do in your own garage. Save yourself a good deal of cash and learn how to do this fix yourself and avoid those hefty professional invoices. Materials Needed
You will most likely only need to remove the center console, but to be sure, crawl under your Jeep and look for the linkage at the transfer case to make sure it is intact down below. The problems almost always occur at the shifter under the console. Step 1 – Remove the console cover
With all of that done, the center console should be free to be removed. You may have to rotate it up and around the e-brake handle to help clear it. The end result should leave your interior looking like the image below. Figure 7. The center console can now be removed by sliding it up and over the emergency brake handle.Step 2 – Remove or replace the bad transfer bushingThe problem you are experiencing is likely from a bad bushing on the transfer case shift linkage. Yours may be split, or completely missing because it crumbled away. Remove the broken pieces and replace with a new one. A new bushing will likely cost you less than a buck with tax. Step 3 – Install the new bushingHopefully you only have an issue with the bushing at the shifter and not underneath as well. You may want to be proactive and replace the lower linkage bushing as well. The lower linkage is well obstructed by the drive shaft and flange connection at the transfer case under the Jeep about at the midpoint of the driver's door. It is a real bear to get to, but luckily, this is not the common area of failure. The new bushing should snap right in place in the linkage arm without much fuss. If you don't feel and hear the click, you may need to use some pliers to snap it into place. Do the linkage arm first and then connect it to the pin. Pro TipBecause this is a common failure, many JK owners not only keep some replacement bushings in the glove box, they also will cut a flap in the side of the console cover to allow quick and easy access to the area. This will enable the repair to be completed in about five minutes. Featured Video: Jeep Transfer Case Linkage RepairRelated Discussions
