Bucket of Bolts?

A little while ago I picked up a older XJ.

I am in the process of fixing it up for trail duty only and want to do this on a tight budget.

Here is what I am working with:

1994 XJ
4.0L H.O - runs mint with 383K/m on it.

The Jeep is not mobile, there seems to be a problem in the drivetrain. Starts up awsome and idles nicely, clutch feels ever so good and shifting is spot on. Problem is the Jeep won't move in 2wd or 4hi. It does move for a couple feet in 4 lo (2 back wheels spin only) but then stops after a few feet. no noises or horrible vibes are felt.

I did a search and rescue on here but came up empty. What could be wrong with my bad boy?

Once I lick this issue, then I am off into mod land and see what I can do do lift this on the cheap!

Thanks for any and all suggestions!

Disconnect your front driveshaft. That way you can tell if it's the front axle or transfercase.

you should check the condition of the shifter cable and make sure the t-case is in the correct gear

im thinking something with the tranfercase

Thanks guys,

Later this week I will take it apart and see whats lurking!

Any other hints would be good too!

Report back in a few days!

Soulds like Tcase linkage. After having to replace the linkage on my 96 I will have problems shifting it from 4lo to 2hi. I will have to yank the handle back and redo it.
