Re: Jeep stuck in Part Time 4WD
I would not begin troubleshooting by suggesting to the OP to look for
components the vehicle doesn't have, you'll just confuse him. Like I posted,
I thought the T case linkage might be out of adjustment and the T case
wasn't shifting all the way out of 4wd.
The axle disconnects were vacuum-operated, that's the reason why there is a
vacuum switch for the indicator on those models.
In fact XJ's DID stop using vacuum switches when they went to one-piece
axles. My '93 XJ, with a one-piece front axle, had an electrical switch. I
know that because the 4wd indicator light did not light up in any position,
and I determined it was probably a bad switch or an electrical failure
between the switch and the light.
Lon checked his 95 Grand FSM, no mention of a vacuum switch.
Any further questions?

Re: Jeep stuck in Part Time 4WD
So you think he just couldn't shift it out of four wheel drive? OK.
