Muncher Posted February 9, 2021 Posted February 9, 2021 i saw something on a tj forum where they took a bolt and welded it to the transfer case shifter and made it stick straight up instead of the bend, would this be possible on a mj? or does anyone know if the lever is the same in a tj as in a mj?
eaglescout526 Posted February 9, 2021 Posted February 9, 2021 Well the XJ/MJ T-case shift handle is used up until 96 for the XJ. And thats all that it fits. Buttttt that being said, the handles look very similar if you remove them from their assemblies.
Muncher Posted February 9, 2021 Author Posted February 9, 2021 well the guy just welded a bolt to the handle after cutting some of the orginial off so as long as i could do that it would work,

Maybe not with the trim piece. any reason why you want to?
