Now go back to page one and compare. Pretty interesting where you took this little SUV.

So to make it to Barstow and still be able to use 4wd, I had to rig up a TJ shift cable outside the rig by the driver front tire. Worked for loading and unloading but was sketchy as fuck on the side of a hill I couldn’t make while prerunning. Initially I thought I could rig that up to the stock shifter… nope. Too short of a cable.

So I bought a jdfab cable setup for a j231. Still had to mod it to work on the tcase but wasn’t bad. Then made the jdfab shifter work on the stock shifter retainer ring. Put the dust shield under it, trimmed the console where the stock one went and good to go.

Shits all over the place as I was test fitting still but all the way forward is 2wd. So it’s 2hi - 4hi - N - 4low - 2low.
