Ok, this is more of a rant than anything else. I'm working on a 97 XJ with only 273k. The NSS is jacked, and I can't get the switch off the AW4 shaft.
Tried this trick,
and all that happened was I popped the nut off. Tried again, and did the same thing happened. Tried 2 screwdrivers, 2 pry bars. I have progressed from being delicate, to careful, to forceful, to careless, to trying to destroy it. Nothing is giving! I have dropped the tranny X-member to gain additional access with no avail. I jammed screwdrivers behind it, and heard the plastic cracking, but the dang thing wont budge! At this point I dont care if I destroy it, as I have a spare, but I would like to re-use it if possible. I am just short of taking a sledge hammer to it....anyone else have this issue? Suggestions?
