Tech Note 1: Remove
The shift rail Interlock Rods are the last parts removed from the transfer case during disassembly and the first ones installed during reassembly. To remove/install the Rods, you need to remove the two small soft plugs that seal the rod access holes which are located on the front output side of your transfer case.
