TCase Shifter Problem
I've search on this a little with no luck. The tcase shifter on my 22re, 5 speed pops out when you apply any upward pressure on it. It's like it lost its seat seal or something. You can pull it upward and spin it all the way around without changing what mode the tcase is in. I've been debating doing a twinstick setup on it because 1) I want to learn the internals of the tcase and 2) i don't want to jump out of the truck to unlock my hubs in the mud/rain. Is now the time to do the twinstick? Or continue doing research on how to reseat the shifter?
Thanks!
Steve

sounds wierd... i know that with the tranny, there are plastic bushing seats the shifter fits in and they wear out over time... have you looked into that with the tcase shifter?
do the twinstick also marlin has a short throw shifter kit, you might want to look into that, it might replacew the part on yours gicving you hassle

I'm thinking it's time to do a twin stick. I've got the tranny/tcase out of the truck right now. I'll take a picture sometime soon to show you how awkward it is to see the shifter facing the wrong way. I can still get it in the rails to change positions, but it requires me putting a little downward force on the shifter.

Oh, found one from Marlin. $159 doesn't sound too bad if i can do all labor myself.

The 4 cyl tcase is the gear driven version, correct? The 6 cyl is the chain driven? Just want to get my facts straight.

Hum.... maybe I'll pay Mr. Marlin a visit... I'm just afraid I might spring for a crawl box or something while talking with his people He's not too far away.
