2000 Jeep Sport transfer case lever broken
 

Symptom: When I try to put my jeep into 4 wheel drive the transfer case
lever just moves forward and back as if it was not connected to anything.
What did I (my son) break. My jeep is located at the river (our second home)
and I need to buy parts to fix the problem. What should I buy and how do I
solve the problem. I would buy all parts for lever and return those that I do
not need. Thanks in advance.

More than likely it's just a cotter key fell out, but you'll
probably have to support the transmission, and pull the skid plate out
of the way to have room to stick it back together:

The adjustment clamp on the transfer case shift lever might just be loose.
They can loosen up over time. The clamp attaches the shifter to a rod
sticking out of the t-case on the driver's side. Check there first before
you buy any parts. If that is not loose, then check the key.

If you pull too hard on the t-case shifter, you can loosen the clamp. This
can be easy to do when you aren't getting it into 4Lo and keep tugging.
