mod 20 transfer case

anything obvious to make a mod20 easier to shift out of 4lo? mine seems to
be a pain sometimes. Is there a procedure like slow rolling forward/reverse
or somthing im not aware of?


76model CJ if that helps

When my Dana 300 jams in 4x4, I need to stop and goose it in reverse
spinning the tires to unwind it.

Fresh grease on the linkages does wonders for them too.

try keeping a steady pull on the shifter while backing up.

The Model 20, actually the AMC 20, is a differential not a transfer case.
The AMC20 is behind the D300 transfer case. Yes, the D300 can be a pain to
get out of 4LO, and going slowly in reverse can help.

The owners manual for my D300 says 'use a firm hand when shifting', LOL!

I have had to even get the passenger out of the way to use the 'firm'
hand and I weigh in at 200 lb.

That is better than having one that pops out of gear. The wrecker driver
here, used to use an assistant for mountain vehicle rescues, just to hold
the transfer case in four wheel drive when going down hill.
