According to my book, the linkage should be adjusted in NEUTRAL. Raise to rear of the vehicle, loosen the sliding trunnion on the linkage and make sure it slides. Place the transfer case shift lever in neutral and verify that it's in neutral by turning the driveshaft with the trans in park. Place the console lever in neutral and tighten the sliding trunnion. Verify you haven't moved the shift lever or the transfer case lever out of neutral and then test drive.

THIS ^^^^^^^^^^^^ is the correct way to do it as dave has posted. thanks
