Default 4WD Selector movement

Hi guys,

Just wondering if someone knows how to fix the 4WD selector movement. Moving it backwards and forwards.

Need more info. Exactly what's the problem?

The usual issue is the plastic clip that holds the cable on the transfer case end, (or occasionally the shifter), has broken. If that's the case, it's relatively easy to replace, or you can get metal aftermarket ones.

Can I ask if you mean aftermarket metal clips/bushings only, or the whole aftermarket shifter cable assembly?

I was just thinking of the plastic clips on the ends. They are good enough to last for over a decade, depending on how much you use it & how hard you are on the changes.

I had the experience of the clip on the end of the shifter (under the car and the transfer case) simply coming oiff. I put i back together. Get under the Jk and have a look.... maybe all you need to do is reattach the clip thingy.But I eventually had the whole shifter cable replaced with after market cable and all and no problems.

Your info is rather vague... b more specific and perhaps add a photo.
