Help Getting Transfer Case Linkage Back Together

Replace it with a cable shifter conversion. I have the Advanced Adapters unit and am happy with it.
The stock shifter linkage was poorly designed and not worth keeping.

Do the right thing and replace it with a Savvy unit:

The stock transfer case shifter is literally one of the worst things that came on a TJ. The cable shifters are so much more smooth!

BTW, I wish I could be of more help, but I literally just ripped mine out and never looked back, so I have no idea how it goes back together. It was a pain in the butt enough to get apart when I replaced it with the Savvy unit.
Same, ripped mine off and replaced it. Sorry but I didn’t pay any attention to how it went together. I bet @mrblaine or @Jerry Bransford knows.
The black bushing has to pop off the peg and then get pressed into the bellcrank. Once that is done then you can pop the peg back into the bushing. It does not however, pop out unless something is wrong or you yanked on it trying to shift it.
Looks like you may have a body lift because one end of the bellcrank shaft isn’t even in the hole from misalignment. If that’s the case you’re probably better off replacing it with an aftermarket cable style as already suggested.
