While on the trail attempting to shift out of 4 low my shifter broke loose and would just flop around leaving us on the trail in neutral. After laying in the dirt to manually shift the case into
2wd from undedneath with some help with the guys we were with. When i got home i took the console out to discover that it is a 50c chunk brittle plastic that holdes the caple to the shifter can leave you broken on the trail, great design......

This is the part there is one on both ends of the cable, i am going to get a few exta.
hope this may help someone out.

 

part #68064273AA

they are right around 32 cents.

 

That is an extremely common break on the trail. An even more permanent fix, if you are going to keep the stock T-case, is the Advance Adapters replacement JK transfercase shifter cable. Bullet proof!

 

Glad you got it fixed up Guy. What a cheesy part

 

Happy to hear you got it fixed and it wasnt anything to serious Man was only in 2wheel and still wheeling like pro!

 

I carry spares and plenty of zip ties....one day I will install the Advance Adapters kit.

 

I am going to get some extras for sure! Maybe make an access spot in the console in case it happens again. Just use a screwdriver to move the cable.

 

I keep 10 of those in my glove box, for me and others. Got them online, when I ordered some other stuff from the same place, for .20 each.

 

there is also another crappy little orange plastic clip for the cable at the transfer case itself...i also carry a few of these for friends...

 

Thanks for the heads up, good to know and now be proactive about it..
