Transfer Case Ripped Through When in PARK!
Me: Working on removing a stuck drum. Ask gf to jump in and yank and release emergency brake.
Her: "What's the emergency brake?"
Me: ??!? ... "The black lever in the center console."
Her: Grabs the transfer case lever and rips it from 2WD to 4Lo!
Me: "wtf!"
Her: (panic) Slams it back 4Lo to 2WD!
Question: Am I fooked? (Haven't tried to start / move it yet.)

Struggling to see what you are worried about here? The engine off, the jeep not moving and she pulled the lever and then put it back? Unless there more to this story, then you are fine.

OK thanks. I never switched except while driving. The manual even says switch while driving at any speed and to 4Lo only at 2-3mph and with the transmission in Neutral. With it parked I didn't know if running through with it not turning might damage it.
