ASSEMBLY
Transfer Case End: (see photo next pages)
Bolt the twin stick base to the transfer case with the 3/8"-16 socket
head cap screws. Thread the 1/2"-13 all thread completely into the twin
stick base. Install the 1/2"-13 jam nut. Tighten the jam nut against the
twin stick base. Slide the extension tube and the extension tube
bracket over the all thread and fasten with the 1/2"-13 serrated lock nut.
Remove one of the 5/8” jam nuts and slide the cable through the
extension tube bracket. Loosely re-install the 5/8” jam nut to hold the
cable in place. Remove the ¼” nut from the cable end and discard. Slip
the 303316 outer nut cap over the cable end and then thread the 303317
cable nut on to the 1/4-28 cable end. The cable nut must be set at a
distance that when the cable end is inserted into the Atlas shift rail,
thecable end bottoms out in the shift rail. The nutis then adjusted to
the front face of the shift rail. Once the cable nut is adjusted correctly,
slip the nut cap over the cable nut and onto the Atlas shift rail. Tighten
the cap nut to retain the cable end to the Atlas shift rail. Use caution
when turning the cap nut, making sure it does not turn the inner cable
nut. Once the assembly is fastened together you should only see about
¼” of the ¼-28 threads coming out of the nut cap. Repeat this step on
the second cable.
Once both cables are connected, the cable outer housing needs to be
set to the cable mount bracket. Shift the transfer case into low range
for this adjustment. The easiest way is to use a long punch and a dead
blow hammer, set the punch (flat tip) on the nut cap and tap the punch
lightly with the hammer. It should pop into the low gear ratio. Turning
the yoke can confirm that you’re in low gear. Once both shift rails are
in low gear you can adjust the outer cable housing.
Loosen the large jam nuts on the cable. Apply some force on the outer
housing of the cable pulling away from the transfer case. The cable is
a 1” travel and the Atlas shift rail is .960". With the Atlas in low range
and the outer housing of the cable extended entirely the other direc-
tion, you can now set the jam nuts to the extension tube bracket
knowing that the travel of both components is correct. Repeat this on
the second cable.
Shift the Atlas back into neutral so when you get to the shifter box
assembly and handle orientation, it is easy to see the correct alignment.
