[QUOTE="RyanC, post: 432688, member: 19983"] Great thanks- I rigged the fork to hold the collar over the spline (small hose clamp holding fork on the shaft, plus put caps vac seals- the pod is still good). I'm pretty sure both 4hi and 4lo are working now. It was a lot more jerky in a tight circle...but I was just in the yard on some dirt so it should be easy to tell in a circle when I get a chance. Also changed the oil, which was pretty bad, put some Mobile1 5w30 in and so far it seems to start much easier. I will have to try when it's all the way cold, but I think I can get just a stick-on oil pan heater for really cold starts. It's running much better now though. 1 Question- When I pulled off the cover of the CAD, two of the heads broke off of the bolts (both driver side). I got 2 new bolts for the other side, and tightened them down pretty good- is it reasonable to assume that will hold up for a few months? I'm going to have a garage here soon and would rather wait until then to try to get the bolt shanks out- or if not, rig it with some make-gasket and a big hose clamp or something. It looked like I would need a grinder or wire-wheel to get the old gasket off... Thanks for the help- man this thing is fun to drive, I took it to a little ungraded part of a parking area at a green belt and messed around for a minute. It was this or a 2d late 90s blazer- I'm glad I got the YJ! [/QUOTE]
