I just saw this video and mine broke the other day. I also did not want to take the center console out to fix it. It tore my hands up and alot of bad words were said and after taking a few breaks I finally got it to go in so thank you soooo much for doing this video
Haha, thanks alot, this just happened to me trying to get out of my driveway during this blizzard. Haven't dug myself out yet but will do so tomorrow. Hopefully it's just the lower linkage but if not l know what to do. Thanks again.
Good vid. If you undid the 2 back screws of the console, it would have been easy to lift the centre consul from the back, can lift it about a foot up without having to take it off completely, this would give heaps of space to get the hands in
Cut the clip part of the bushing off. Using the bushing part, put a tight fitting washer and an “e” clip into the groove of the pin on the t-case shift lever. Won’t ever come off again. Do the same inside the console. Alternatively the Advance Adapter cable kit is the 100% solution
@@KINNETICOFFROAD Washer diameter has to be larger than the bushing diameter. I’ve done this fix a number of times for folks. I eventually did the AA cable kit. A PITA to install but bulletproof.
Ours broke today. Our shifter cable with the hole is stuck behind that metal bracket under center council. Which makes it even harder with the council still on. I pried it up enough to do the job but now I can't get the bushing to go in the hole on the cable. Pain in the butt. The cable under the jeep was a lot eaiser

@@jerrymcgeorge4117 I have wondered if you could cut some threads on the transfer case and the transmission,couple of washers and locknuts?
Awesome job
Guy told be he used a hole saw to cut an opening to fix it when it happens.
Where do I buy that bushing for the bottom end of the cable? Sorry if I missed that...
@kinneticoffroad can you share the part number of the bushing?
Great outro music
It really sucks when it happens in neutral

Yes! Good stuff!
We’re do you buy the casing ???
Had to pay $400 dollars for a tow for a $15 plastic part
