Oh, and for the record, this is the part I needed.This is a Dorman aftermarket replacement.

Okay! I got the bushing in place. 4WD is working. I dropped the bushing once and it appeared to have completely vanished. I found in on top of the cross member. I also found the clip I dropped the other day on it. Thanks, everyone for your input regarding this issue.

That's definitely different.

When I'm in 4 high the light on the dash says part time.

It's at the transfer case. There's just no way the part I got is going into the eyelet on the end of the shift rod. The diameter is way to big. I went to O'Reilly Auto Parts and I think I got what I needed. I"ll find out tomorrow when I attempt to install it. At least the Jeep is mobile now.

I got my Jeep moving. The part I ordered was wrong. I ordered the JL1Kit1 as suggested above. It was way to big to go into the hole for the pin. The part I need is only the center bushing. It's like the part in this video. Anyway, I decided to try something just to get it to go. I put the...

I had to wait for the rain to stop but I finally got under the jeep to take a look and it is indeed the linkage is disconnected. I was trying to get a hitch pin on it to hold it in place so I could at least move it. It's very tight in there and I couldn't get a good angle to push it on. I'm...

So, I've got the Jeep on jack stands but I can't seem to find where the transfer case linkage is. I may be looking in entirely the wrong place. Any help identifying the location is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the quick reply, RenKJ. I'll have to crawl under it tomorrow and take a look.

Okay, here's the issue. I was having difficulty shifting in and out of four wheel drive the other day. Today I had to move my Jeep to shovel snow, so I backed down the driveway. I then attempted to put the transmission into four wheel drive. I moved the shifter and there was tension on it then...

Good luck! I hope that's all it is. I wouldn't wish changing a heater core on anyone after what I went through.

I'm sorry to hear that you have this issue because you may not want to hear this. I don't want to put a scare into and here's hoping it's not the case but but do you smell coolant? Monitor your coolant level and see if it goes down. It may be imperceptible at first. I had that same issue last...

I replaced the clock spring a couple of weeks ago. Replaced the heater blower motor resistor today. The fan works on all four speeds now for the first time in years.

I installed a new clock spring. I watched a video on Youtube on how to do it. It took the dude in the video a few hours to get the steering wheel bolt off so I was a bit apprehensive. He finally got it off with an air impact. I removed the air bag, two screws and three wires and the nut turned...
