I remember setting up my Novak a decade ago and having the same problem with 4L. I have no advise on the adjustment other than to say good luck.

I dont know if my tcase and shifter were just never in 4L, but when nothing was hooked up, I had to use two hands to crank it back into 4L. Wonder if the mechanism has a bunch of gunk in it so I need to pull the console to fix/clean it. That's a side note. Anything I touch on this something else goes wrong or has issues.

@Srfnfly227 Thanks Lee. Yeah, its been about 10 years since I had last had one so I just dont remember what I did to make it butter.

You don’t use low range anyways😂
Do you have a body lift or tummy tuck? That can cause binding issues.

Oh but I will cornholio!

Yeah, Teraflex belly skid and a 1" BL. It was bound, the linkage was pressed tightly against the tub. Good news though, I have the cable shifter adjusted so she is ready to rock! Well, by that, I mean I am throwing the front driveshaft in and will have 4wd again.

Just in time for snow season!

@G Beasley yeah umm it’s gonna sit in the garage don’t be silly.

Look Uncle Rob @Florpro , I’m using the strange lever to the left of my shifter!

four dubya four works, front locker works, and the shifter is maybe 80%, so I call that a win. Got my first scratch rubbing against this concrete!!

Oh I am going to have some packaging issues with this front cover me thinks.

The rear trutrac was a bad idea.

While @RokAddict85 is out there looking like a rock star - I added some vents to my fenders....

So, to be honest, I was banking on my boy @jeepster1407 Justin making me some side louvers, but he doesn't have the ability to do that anymore. Motobilt put out a second generation of their fenders where the M is missing, and now they have these fancy vents. I snagged a set - I am not entirely in love with them considering you can see what's behind them - like a battery and a great big wiring harness, but, they are effective and look neat.

I wish the different companies would offer their product's minus their cut in logo's.

 

[green50gt]

Anybody ever “restore” rigid lights? I thought I could take apart to sand blast but looks like the lense is glued in.

This is what I’m thinking for placement..

I have a Rigid light bar with the coating peeling as well. Little disappointing considering what it cost. The last two vehicles I had it installed behind the grill, so I've been able to ignore it so far.

Sorry man 👎👎👎 The new version from MB looks much better than the previous one though.

I hate doing repair work! New radiator, turns out nothing was wrong with my aluminum one, just a bad upper hose, but swapped out for new anyway.

Still freakin having issues with 4low. Did some testing in this rock pile at lunch on our 52 degree day…

-Won’t go into gear.
-pops out of gear.
-hard to find the gear
-lack of muscle memory (sorry had to😘)

B&M cable shifter. Throw isn’t long enough to go into 4low.

So my tire got into the back of the fender and yanked this bracket deal down so I’m going to have to modify that. I sort of have a picture of it under full stuff but my son took it and he’s not a camera man…. But it’s enough to know I need a little bump stop.
