Purchased a kit from Milemarker. When had transmission and transfer case out, had them overhauled and the kit installed. Installed a set of locking hubs also.

Transfer case will not go into 4WD.

Help guys.

zMissing both of the $WD positions in the linkage

Should have 5 positions as follows according to the tech article in CK5

4x4 Low
2x4 low
Neutral
2x4 High (Normal Street use)
4x4 High

I can only find the middle three. This sound like a linkage problem?

There are 2 linkage rods on the shifter so maybe one is off / improperly adjusted. I wish I could over better tech but I've never worked on a 203. :dunno:
 
so you cant engage 4x4 high or low? could just be a problem with the shifter and linkage. try unhooking the linkage and see if you can engage 4x4 from underneith by hand, if you cant then its an internal problem.


i have the same problem but mine is the shifter and adjustment. i took apart the shifter and cleaned and regreased it but i forgot how it all went together and didnt get back together correctly i think.
 
The 203 shifter is notorious for binding if dry. Like already said - check the linkage to make sure its adjusted properly and then spray some lube into the shifter itself.
