backwoodsboy Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 Here she is folks! - Removed the shift rod from the tranny, and bent it out of the way. - Welded a bolt (with matching thread, and connected to tranny, onto the end of a spare ea81 hood prop rod - Routed rod through drilled hole in firewall. - Connected to spare 4WD hi/lo shift assembly, which was welded to the body.

Sweet82 Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 I like your engineering... The stick is backwards from the factory position, so are you pushing down for 4wd up for 2wd:confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backwoodsboy Posted June 20, 2007 Author Share Posted June 20, 2007 I like your engineering... The stick is backwards from the factory position, so are you pushing down for 4wd up for 2wd:confused: The blue factory-position stick you see in the corner of picture 2 now ONLY controls the 2wd/4wd action. The new tan stick I put in is to select hi or lo range independently of the 4wd ......lemme tell you, 2wd lo is SWEET if you are running bigger tires! UP is high-range DOWN is low-range I had to weld it in backwards too.....if it was the "right way" it would be in the way. Where it is, it tucks nicely behind your knee as you drive!
