Like the title says. Command-Trac, 4-lo won't stay in unless I hold the lever up by hand. 4-hi works great, and I just did a fluid change on the transfer case. It will go in and work if I hold it, but if I try to drive without my hand on it the lever pops out of position.

You probably just need to adjust it. There are adjustments on the linkage that should fix your problem. Hope this helps!!
