    connection hardware for 4wd transfer case/shifter knob connecting rod

    connection hardware for 4wd transfer case/shifter knob connecting rod

    So when i bought my truck, it had many small issues. one such issue was that while the 4wd worked (tested and verified before I agreed to buy it), it has to be set manually from beneath the truck. This is because the shifter in the cab isn't connected to the transfer case below. I have the...

    new diesel owner in Knoxville, TN

    Greetings! After getting my first truck (2wd gasser Tundra) and driving it about 6 years, I sold it last fall. BIG MISTAKE. Life without a truck is a pale imitation. So I've been doing lots of research and looking at candidates on craigslist, ebay, and other local and regional sources...
