Linkage issues
Hey all,
Been searching on here for an answer and can't find anything to really answer my question. I have a 95 xj with 6.5" rc lift on 33x12.50r15's, sye, & tom woods rear shaft, tc drop.
My issue is, the alignment of the 4wd linkage parts. All of them seem to be at odd angles not allowing them to work properly.(popping out of joints, not engaging). Would removing my tc drop bring the alignment back on these joints? And since I already have a sye & rear shaft would removing the tc drop be harmful?
Thanks all!

I attempted to adjust the linkage with no luck.
I was looking at those kits, not too sure why my kit didn't come with that maybe it got shorted or something.
The main parts that don't line up correct are the rod that attaches to the lever on the tcase, and the pin that attaches to the main bracket on the case. Both are at about 45degree angles rather than straight on. The drop kit they gave me was spacers, probably about 1"-1.5". I would think removing those spacers and adjusting accordingly it should bring the alignment back?
