Title: Jeep ZJ low range
Post by: 99mrbe on August 19, 2015, 04:15:55 PM

Hello all,

I have a jeep ZJ 1996, As some might know the low range is A pain to select if it has been used for a long time.

Well after buying mine it does exactly that. It will select and drive on a flat surface but as soon as you show it a hill it jumps out. And if you try and hold the lever in it just grinds.

Does anyone know a fix for this?

Cheers Ben
