Exclamation Denvercherokee

My 87 Cherokee Limited's four wheel drive stopped working. I replaced the transfer case vacuum switch. While re-hooking the vacuum plug the lines began breaking. I think the lines were the cause of my problem. My Jeep's got 270k on it and the lines are OEM. I need a new vacuum harness or a vacuum diagram. I hesitate to go the salvage yard route since these lines get so brittle over time. The yards here don't have much of a stock of old Cherokees anyway. Can any of you help me get my buddy working right?

You could just eliminate the whole mess for ~$110.

You search and you WILL find this cheaper....
