What!! please tell me more!!
I tried it and it can be done, but IMO it's not worth it.
What!! please tell me more!!
I removed the stock mechanism in the evening in about 30 minutes. Installed the Savvy the next morning in about an hour and a half.
Not difficult, just had to figure out how it all went together. I was also missing a cotter pin. Had to run to the store.
EDIT: I DID remove the skid plate but NOT a driveshaft
I left the shaft in and removed the skid. I had no significant difficulties.I plan to do the same and leave the driveshaft in and remove the skid. Was it a fight for room to work? I'm waiting for my cable now. I removed all the bolts and nuts from the skid just to see what fight I was in for. I was worried about spinning nutserts. Thankfully none. Anti-seize on everything when I put the nuts and bolts back in.
I did not think it was a fight for room. There are not many nuts and bolts, so it was rather easy going. I am a small guy, so it was easy getting into the spaces. I did not have a tummy tuck, like I have now, so I had plenty of room. Removing a driveshaft to save time is probably just going to counter the time saved. Hope it goes well.

Possibly. If the body is shifting relative to the frame as the body mounts flex, it could knock the transfer case out of gear. A cable shifter would prevent that. If it’s entirely internal to the transfer case, it wouldn’t help.Ive read so much about these shifters, I felt like I ‘needed one’ but mine shifts perfectly fine. However, when wheeling on some challanging terrain, mine has popped out of gear, maybe 2 times that I can recall. Is this type of shifter a remedy for that?

That was back in 2015, I believe, so it's a bit fuzzy in the memory. I just remember I was not interested in removing either the front ds or the skid plate, so I undertook it to install the Savvy shifter without doing either. It took a bit more time, but definitely possible.What!! please tell me more!!
