Transfer case shifter
Hi guy's!
I've got a recently developed problem with my shifter on the transfer case in a 1993 F-150 (302 AO4D)
I plow snow with this hard working baby and normally have no problems whatsoever. But just recentlyI'm having trouble getting from 4 wheel High or Low back to 2 wheel. it seems as though the shifter doesn't want to lift like it should when you bring it back out of 4 wheel Low. It will go to 4 wheel high and nuteral O.K. You really have to pull up hard to get it into 2 wd. I had some exhaust work done the other day and had the guy's take a quick peek at it and give it some lube but it doesn't seem to have helped. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

Thanks Frederic, but I removed the boot on the shifter and lubed the crap out of the slide that the shift rod goes through and it seems to have helped a little bit. I don't know if there's supposed to be a protective boot on the bottom of that rod or not I can't see the bottom for ice and snow right now but there's definitely one on the top, also I don't know if there is a spring inside that tube the shift rod goes through, I'll have to check that out and look at it if I can get it inside somewhere and let it thaw out. the problem is we've had so much snow up here I can't take the truck out of service for too long.

This is why I hate snow. Vehicles I own only seem to break in incliment weather, just so I have to lie on my back in snow or ice.
Its just the way it is heh-heh. Good luck with the repair.

Whenever your ready to send that snow to the northeast, IM WAITING, we have no snow here, on your shifter i have heard of them getting corroded to the shaft, take a look underneith and see if you can just take it off and give some grease to it.
