It ws an absolute pleasure my friend. Mine is still as free as a well oiled machine. :-)

So glad to have found this, my 105 has the same issue. Plan on pulling it apart and doing exactly what you have. Many thanks 🙏

Thanks very much - just had my dealer do the service and they basically said they could not fix the stiffness but I will have a go myself. Cheers

Hi there It sounds like your 1st gear synchro mesh is worn out. It is quite a common thing on the cruiser gear boxes. Mine also does the same with 1st and second gear.

Good job mate. Do you have to remove the front carpet to get to the boot bolts?

Thanks for the comment, much apreciated! My carpets are not original so not sure about that. I did not have to remove mine though.

Would like to see how you removed it aswell, does rubber boot just clip out? And are there any gaskets and so on when putting back on to transfercase?

Hi Juandre. I did not know it but mine is actually missing the lower rubber boot. The lower boot slips over the gear lever stub (quite a difficult fit) All mine has is the big upper boot that covers both gear levers. I only found out later that there is supposed to be another boot under the top boot which acts as a dust cover. But to answer your questions, the upper boot is just held down to the floor with a few screws. Remover the screws and the boot is free. I did not totally remove the top boot but worked through the gap made by lifting the rear edge up. That selector unit does not bolt to the transfer case at all, it bolts to a flat pedestal on top of the rear of the gearbox. This pedestal is not open to the internals of the gearbox so there are no gaskets at all. The selector unit is totally separate from the workings of the gearbox and links to the transfer case with a pushrod. I hope I have answered your questions. If you still need to know anything more, feel free to ask.

I would strongly suggest that you fit that lower boot if it is missing since it is what stands between the sand an water and the nice oily or greasy shaft. I will be ordering one for sure now that I know about it. kzread.info/dash/bejne/no2h29KoacW5hs4.html

How to transfer an electronic 4wd 100 j to non electronic 4wheel motor using the same transfer case

My friend I wishI could help you with this but I have never done this myself. I hope you come right.

You forgot to mention the very first step in freeing the transfer lever, and that is: Remove the transmission from the vehicle! I came looking for a solution to the same problem and unfortunately this was no help

@The_ElunduExpeditionProject

If you have/had the same issue I had, there is absolutely no need to remove the transmission at all. Your vehicle must be suffering from another problem.

@@The_ElunduExpeditionProject Sorry, I was being sarcastic with the trans removal comment. My similar problem is with a 100 series, and I was stumped with how to get to the transmission linkage. I can only access two of the four bolts required to remove it through the large circular hole when the centre console is removed. Your video jumped straight to the unit when it was out of the car, and the only way I could find to do that on the 100 was to undo the cross-member and lower the whole transmission assembly. So, basically you didn't show what I was looking for, so I have to assume it's much easier on the 80 Series?

@@78Bonne Everything was accessed through the hole in the floor pan tunnel except for the one nut that needs to be put onto the balljoint that fastens the push pull rod to the lever on the transfer case. I do however have an 80 series which might not be the same. My technical content tends to be 80 series sprcific.
