Default Can't get the NSS back on?!?!?! please someone help...

so i followed all instructions as seen here

http://bc4x4.com/tech/2010/jeep-neut...ty-switch-nss/

i have it all clean and put back together, but im having a hell of a time putting the beast back on

is there a trick to it? cause i can only get the shaft right up to the outer edge of the swing arm and thats no where near close enough for me to get the adjustment bolt on above it

Try rotating the shaft clockwise all the way, sound like it's not lining up and u gettin blocked by the trans line or pan. It has to go on and come off straight. Also make sure u don't have the nut that goes around the shaft on at all.

push the shift linkage in on the drivers side of the tranny, it pushes out as you put the nss on so it stops it from fully seating.

once you are pressing the tranny linkage towards the transmission on the drivers side, slide the NSS on as far as possible then lightly tap it all the way on with the side of a hammer.

I had the same issue and it cause my shifter to get REAL tight and not shift right.
