TF JeepWrangler
YJ Background
The Jeep Wrangler YJ was introduced in 1987. In 1988 some minor changes were made including the way the upper half doors attached to the lower half doors. Little changed for Wrangler YJ jeep parts in model years 1989 and 1990. Starting in 1991, the 4.2 liter in-line 6 cylinder engine was upgraded to the fuel injected 4.0 Liter High Output engine which remained in Jeep Wranglers for the next 15 years. In 1992, the classic roll bar was changed to the more elaborate cage which provided the Jeep Wrangler YJ rear passengers with greater protection. With the exception of minor interior and trim details, Wrangler YJ Jeep parts remained unchanged in model years 1993, 1994 and its final production year 1995.

Removing vaccum from transfer case

From Wrangler Forum
http://www.wranglerforum.com/f8/by-passing-frt-diff-4wd-vacuum-78334.html
1. jack up right frt. tire and place on jack stand
(easier if not done on a day that snow is not packed on your jeep...lol)
2. unplug vacuum lines from the shift motor actuator and cap off you will not need them any more .
3.remove the four bolts holding shift motor on and remove it (don't forget to have a pan or towel on the floor to catch the very amount of lube that will come out)
4.now look at the axle see how the collar slides over to connect the two axle's together? you might have to turn the right tire a little as you use your finger to slide it to left all the way as the splines line up now your frt. diff is locked into fwd. ( that's a good thing for a jeep)
5.now take apart the shift motor.take a marker and put a dot on one side of the fork and a dot on the matching side of the housing so you will remember what way the fork faces( trust me it saves time..lol) remove the two e-clips holding the shift fork shaft in place and pull shaft out. discard everything but the shaft,fork and big e-clip
6.now put the shaft with the fork back in the housing (no e-clip yet) and move the fork all the way to the right that is where it is when the 4wd is locked in ( remember the collar you slide to the left to lock the axle's together?)
7. now get a spring or fuel line (like i did) and cut it to take up the space on the shaft so that the fork can not move to the right ( and yes the spring or hose needs to fit over the shaft and I am sorry i did not measure the length or i.d for ya but heck you need to do a little of the work yourself) tip: if you use a piece of hose it needs to be fuel and oil resistant ( mine has been set this way for two years)
8.after you get the spacer cut right put in the e-clip so the shaft won't come out.
9. reinstall on the diff. using a little gasket sealer or a new gasket and your almost done. top off the lube if you feel like the little bit that came out is a bad thing.
10. you are now done and have a much improved 4wd set up. you will not notice a drop in mpg, no change in handling ( transfer case disconnects the frt. drive). what you will feel is a good feeling knowing your frt. axle really is locked in when it's needed ( yep even when it is -7 degree's like it is here to day)
