SShifter End:
1 . Remove 1 of the 5/8" jam nuts and the lock washer from each cable and discard.
2 . Slide the Barrel Retainer plate over both shifter cables, then thread both cable barrels onto the shift
cables.
3 . Now thread the heim joints onto the shift cables inner rod and tighten the jam nuts. (This should look
like the photos to the right.)
4 . Using a mallet, hammer the pivot bushings into the shifter
handles. Start the bushing into the handle, hold the handle with
the bushing side down on the table, hit the top side of the handle
with the dead blow hammer to install the bushing. Repeat for the
remaining bushings.
5 . Assemble the shifter body. See the last two pages for help on
this.
6 . Slide the heim joint to meet the tapped hole in the shift handle and
insert the bolt from the bottom of the shifter box to secure the
handles to the cables.
7 . Slide the cable barrel retainer plate up the shifter body and fasten
it with the 1/4"-20 button head cap screws (Note: Do not fully
tighten these cap screws).
8 .
With the transfer case in neutral and the shifter box
assembled, you will need to adjust the handles in the shifter
box. Make sure the 5/8" jam nut is not tight against the cable
barrel. By turning the cable barrel with a set of pliers it will
move the outer cable housing inward or outward and thus
move the handle forward or backwards in the shifter box.
Since the cables are set correctly down at the transfer case
and the transfer case in now in natural. The goal is, the
handles should be adjusted to create a 90 degree angle with
the orientation of the handles to the top of the shifter box. When the shifter is adjusted properly, tighten
the jam nuts and the cable barrel retainer plate screws.
9 . Once adjusted install the bottom cover using the supplied button head cap screws and apply a bead of
RTV silicone to seal the two.
10. Apply Butyl tape to bottom side of shifter box flange and slide the assembled shifter box down into the
floor and secure using the stock bolts removed earlier.
