Hey yall first post on discoweb for me so bear with me.

Bascially I took apart the shifter linkage for the transfer case because my CDL wasn't engaging. come to find out the little plastic ring retainer was broken so I swapped out the parts and now she shifts into diff lock just fine, but now shifting from high to low is pretty tough. I can force it but I figure that's not very good for it. Keep in mind before I took it apart it would shift from low to high fine, but it obviously not into diff lock.

Anyone got any advice for me? maybe its something simple I just don't realize from shifting back to unlock from lock or something? Thanks.

I am going through a similar issue with my new project. The good news is that I am positive my new to me 99 has never been offroaded now. Check out a channel called Britannica Restorations on youtube. He claims that it is almost always the linkage that goes South due to lack of use and is not too difficlut to fix.
Also this guy has some info on the methods to try.
