The following procedure should be used, if a partial or incomplete engagement
of the transfer case shift lever detent is experienced or if the control assembly
requires removal.
- Disconnect the negative battery cable.
- Raise the shift boot to expose the top surface of the cam plates.
- Loosen the 1 large and 1 small bolt, approximately 1 turn. Move the transfer
case shift lever to the 4L position (lever down).
- Move the cam plate rearward until the bottom chamfered corner of the neutral
lug just contacts the forward right edge of the shift lever.
- Hold the cam plate in this position and torque the larger bolt first to
70–90 ft. lbs. (95–122 Nm) and torque the smaller bolt to 31–42
ft. lbs. (42–57 Nm).
- Move the transfer case in cab shift lever to all shift positions to check
for positive engagement. There should be a clearance between the shift lever
and the cam plate in the 2H front and 4H rear
(clearance not to exceed 3.3mm) and 4L shift positions.
- Install the shift boot assembly.
- Reconnect the negative battery cable.
Both of the electronic shift and the AWD model transfer cases do not require
any linkage adjustments, nor are any possible.
