Just picked up a 97 Wrangler SE on Sunday, well I didn't try the 4 wheel drive until today, I put it in 4H and let the clutch out, and it moved a little then made like a wierd grind noise and didn't seem to move (but I did push the clutch in right away). put it in 4L and it seemed to move under power fine (wasn't really gettin on it though)
Is there some sort of adjustment I can make somewhere to make the problem go away, or is the transfer case shot? I haven't looked under there yet, but I'm hoping maybe just a linkage adjustment?
I have nothing to put in the profile, the Jeep is all stock, except it has 31's on it, and a beat up old cd player :laugh:. I would like to lift it eventually, but it's just to beat around in, gotta fix the little things first.
Even with it all stock, put that in there. There are still various engines, transmissions, axles available from the factory, and the Jeep vary by year.
Yes - if you look under there on the driver side you will see the linkage. You might try loosening the nut on the linkage and checking to see that the lever into the t-case is in the right place in relation to the shift lever. In other words the shifter might be in 4-hi but the lever into the t-case is not quite there.
