I don't mind having mine working. Since I put a zip tie on it the vacuum lines stopped falling off. That disco diverts vacuum to turn on the light when it's actually over btw. (that's why three). I guess if you do this, > https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f51/fr...ss-91-a-38629/ you can still select 4WD at the TC, and have a light if you connected two of the lines.

then you can see everything in there. there is a ring that should slide over the split in the shafts to lock the two together.
i've just fixed a gear clamp around the right side of that collar (ring) to hold it across the split to lock it in permanently, the you can just slip the fork and housing back on, not necessary to fix it back into place, cause it won't be needed.
then bolt it all back up and not worry about it again. i have only had that collar slip off once in 5 years.
