MLPS Issues
I was installing my manual shift transfercase and the MLPS was in the way. I loosened the two 8mm bolts (didn't remove anything) so that I could manuver the 4x4 linkage into position. Got everything put back toghether, started the truck and put it into gear....nothing. I immediately figured I had misadjusted the MLPS so I go to put it into park to kill it, and when I try to go into park I can hear a light grinding sound from either the back of the dashboard or under the hood. I have been trying to get this thing adjusted for about an hour now but I need help. I replaced the MLPS about 3 years ago and it didn't give me any trouble. Every adjustment I have made results in the same outcome: no gear engadgment, starts right up, light grinding from somewhere if you try to put it into park.

If I remember correctly....
Set parking brake.
Put in Neutral.
Remove linkage for shift leaver on transmission.
Place transmission in Neutral.
Remove shift arm. Hold it so you dont bend anything inside.
Be sure shift shaft it is in Neutral.
Align MLPD Neutral marks.
Reattach shift arm.
Place arm in Drive.
Place shift lever in Drive and have helper hold it down lightly.
Adjust shift linkage until it lines up with the shift arm ball and connect it.
Hope this helps.
