Did you check the transmission mount? there's a rubber pad that holds
the tail of the transmission off the skid plate. 23 years of leaking
motor oil and exhaust heat turns it into bubblegum. If the mount is bad
it will let the front yoke hit the tranny tunnel -- when you step on the
gas. Testing is simple: Put your legs under the jeep, put a foot on
the rear yoke and shove. Harder. Now try the other side. If it moves,
it failed.

Hello Lee,
You were correct. It is the mount. Using a bar, I can move the transfer
case enough to make the yoke hit the tunnel.
Thanks,
Norman
