Wrangler 2008 transfer case cable bushings have failed twice now. The
> last
> failure was the the transfer case shifter. The mechanic slid his hand

> remove
> the plastic console that covers the area with a plastic trim tool and
> pop
> the shifter knob off there is metal cover. What tools are required to
> remove this cover. How do I gain access to the linkage to place a new
> bushing. Further I've found two locations under the vehicle that use
> these plastic bushings (previous failures) and are causing me some
> confusion. A cable attaches to the transmission and runs to the trans
> axle, both ends using plastic bushings that have disintegrated (first
> failure). Is it also a cable that runs from the shifter into the
> transmission or is it solid linkage? Where else are these plastic
