Youse guys and gals are costing me money! I didn't even know about Savvy's transfer case shift cable until I found this forum. I usually do OK shifting my Rubicon in and out of 4 wheel drive, but my wife has struggled at times. It seemed to me like that was justification enough for buying the Savvy kit. The kit does not come with instructions, but there is ample info available on the internet to make this an easy job. I found Rubicon specific instructions for the similar Novack shift kit, and a PDF file for the Savvy 231 transfer case shift cable kit. I have attached files of the instructions I reviewed before starting my project.
First, meet Rootie the Rubicon. She is a 2004 model. She has been in the family for 2 1/2 years.
I started by checking the hardware in my package. Savvy put most of this together before putting it in the box. I love hardware and this is all good stuff.
Once I was satisfied I new how the kit went together, I started on the Jeep. I removed the skid plate and the front driveshaft. This gave me plenty of room to work. Be sure and support the engine and transmission when you remove the skid plate. You need to unbolt the locker air compressor from the skid plate and tie it up out of the way too. I marked my drive shaft and yokes so I could put that stuff back on just like it came off. I recommend that you service that driveshaft while you have it out.
