Hi all just looking for a little expertise . I have currently removed my center console and have accessed the CDL mechanism. I was wondering if the bar that runs from the cdl shifter to the transfer case is supposed to pivot ? It looks like it is supposed to , but mine is locked in place . The selector now moves smoothly over the once seized shaft(which was very corroded) . My question is , does this (once corroded )shaft move at all or is it only the circular piece surrounding the shaft that moves. Right now the CDL selector nob only moves about an 1/2 inch to the left so I'm not sure if I've fixed the problem or if there's more to it .
Any help would be appreciated

The CDL shaft moves approx. 25 to 30 degrees. Then, on top of that, there is some play (maybe 5 degrees) that doesn't seem to do anything, at the end of the 'locked' position.

Ken, the answer to your question is no, that 'pivot' rod does not move in or out at all.. The bar pivots on that rod via a small pin held in place by a small clip. Remove that clip and slid the pin out of the linkage bar. Sand it a little and lube it up.The location of the pivot enables the bottom of the bar to move more than the top, but it must move!! Good Luck Ken..
