Azzy's Design Works Transfer Case Linkage kit, fits Jeep Cherokee XJ & Comanche

Description

Tired of your hard-to-adjust
Rube Goldberg
contraption that never seems to let you put your
Jeep®
in
4L
?
Does you
Jeep®
pop out of
4H
when you flex too much?
We were sick of this happening to us on our
XJ / MJ
, so we hashed out a kit* that would junk the old
"Z" linkage
/ bell crank / lever from the transfer case, and simply bolt on, creating a stronger and more consistent shifting experience.
This is everything to replace the crummy factory operation.
NO DRILLING OR WELDING REQUIRED!
Tested to fit factory
Cherokee XJ
AW4
,
AX15
, &
NP231
and
NP242
combos.

FAQ:
- WILL YOUR XJ LINKAGE FIT MY CHEROKEE? IT HAS A LIFT...? Our top selling XJ linkage has been installed on thousands of XJs around the world, from the first 1986 models with the V6, to the 2001 final versions. Most lift kits will not effect the setup, however some extra adjustment or tweaking may be necessary with aftermarket crossmembers that include a built in drop. - WILL THE XJ KIT WORK WITH A TRANSFER CASE DROP? On a Cherokee, we have seen our kits used with 1” drops and more. A transfer case drop typically means that the crossmember that contains the transmission mount is lowered with spacers, and this moves the case down further than the transmission since it hangs off the end. If your motor mounts and trans mount are not in good condition, the drop amount can exceed the limits of the ideal geometry for our kit. We do have the option to purchase longer rods if you want to tackle this setup. In our experience as XJ owners, we don’t usually recommend these drops due to the issues they can create as parts wear and the drivetrain moves. - I HAVE A 242 TRANSFER CASE; WILL THIS KIT WORK? We have lots of XJs in the wild with our kit installed with a 242. If you have one of these, and a transfer case drop, you may need to extend your upper lever. For those with the ability to do so, this could mean welding, or an easier route would be to buy one of our spare part upper link plates and chain them together in your install, or purchase the 242 kit. - WILL THE XJ KIT WORK WITH MY COMANCHE? The drive train is nearly identical to that of the Cherokee. The fitment is the same. - WILL THE XJ KIT WORK ON A TJ? Sorry—no. The TJ kit has been discontinued. A standalone YJ kit is in the works. - WILL THIS WORK WITH A TUMMY TUCK / CLOCKED TRANSFER CASES? Typically, no—sorry. - WILL THIS WORK WITH A 2 LOW OR TERALOW KIT? Reports from XJ customers tell us—yes—though we have not tested it, to get further throw, there may be some cutting of the floor shift gate required.
Our TJ kit has been discontinued.
*The XJ kit is for the XJ / MJ only, and not TJ, ZJ, WJ, WK, WK2, KK, etc.
