Stuck in 4L??
Used my 85 CJ7 to pull some downed trees out of my stream. I locked the
hubs, put her in 4L and pulled away. No problems. I took it out of 4L
(very hard shift) and drove off. Now it drives like it's stuck in 4L.
30MPH in 5th gear. What happened? How do I fix it?

Hi Joe,
In the future back up a couple of feet to relieve the bind between
the axles. But now it sound like the linkage has come apart if it's in
the two wheel position.

Re: Stuck in 4L??
Obviously not out of 4L. Maybe a shift linkage problem. Can you get it to
neutral? There should be four distinct positions 4L, N, 2H, 4H coming from
front to back.

Is this an "aw ----" or is it something easy to fix?
