Dana 20 Transfer Case Shift Linkage FIX for Jeep CJ | George's Linkage Kit Makes Shifting Easy Again

  • The Dana 20 transfer case that came in 70s model CJs is a great transfer case, but has one common problem. The linkage setup wears out and can make it nearly impossible to shift. This was the case on both of my CJ5s, so I called up my buddy George to see if he had a solution. He said that I was in luck and that he had actually been working on a solution for a while now. He invited me over to the shop to check it all out. I was lucky enough to snag a prototype from him and will make another video getting it installed into the Jeep. This kit will be available this summer and will be for sale at Barney's Jeep Parts, Vintage Jeep Parts, Salvage Jeep Parts, and MidWest Willy's.

    This is like sitting down with my Dad to work on one of our jeeps.. the sheer KNOWLEDGE George has about these things is amazing, and it's way more fun learning about it from a person.. would love to spend a day hanging out in your shop George!

      Dana 20 shift linkages are waiting on a piece from the fab shop and then they should be ready to go. All of the retailers mentioned will carry the knobs and the linkages. Shoot me an email through my website. I am keeping a list of people to notify when the product is available.
