Re: Transfer case options
 

OK............I bought an Atlas II awhile ago & haven't been able to install
it yet (been working on my sons YJ, my wife's Explorer - then we bought a
house & took over a month to move, then moved my son back home, my
brother-in-law to an apartment, his wife to a house in sacto, etc, etc, etc)
anyway - the shift knobs for the linkage say L & H for both the front & rear
controllers. I just went to the advance site & it also mentions front wheel
only in Lo. So why can't you use front wheel drive High???

Re: Transfer case options
 

My 49 Willys pickup has two levers for the transfer case. I once
owned a '58 FC170. The xfer case had all the mountings on the housing
for two levers, but instead some 'clever' mechanical engineer had made
a thing sort of shaped like a "Y" that could pull and push and let one
lever run through 2H-4H-N-4L. The gotcha was that 22 years later the
linkage was a wore out piece of crap and would only go
4L->N->4H->That's all folks. I would have to get aout and crawl under
the beast and wrassle the thing with a screw driver and really never
knew if I had gotten back into 2H with out looking for rubber flying
off the front tires. The '49 with its twin levers is intrinsically
reliable and still works as well as when it rolled out of the factory.

I wish the new stuff they make would last so well.
