42RLE Transmissions note:

42RLE Transmissions have some
clearance issues with the tailhousing
on one of the new shifter cables. If
you have the 42RLE transmission,
you will need to use the upper cable
support hole on bracket 303307.
This cable support hole moves the
inside cable away from the trans­mission tailhousing gives you the
needed clearance. We have in­cluded a shift rail link bar that pro­vides the correct alinement of the
Atlas shift rail to the new cable
location on the 303307. The Atlas
base mount 302051-RLE has been
modified to clear the new link bar
assembly. If you are using the link
bar assembly, see the last page of
this instruction sheet.

ATLAS T/C JEEP TJ & (XJ 84-01)

CABLE SHIFTER

NOTE ON SHIFTING: The Atlas Transfer case is a synchronized unit. The transfer case shifts best when the shafts are spinning.

Note that when the transfer case is shifted when not in motion, the teeth may or may not be aligned. If the teeth are aligned, then the
unit will slip into gear easily. If the unit does not slip into gear easily, then no amount of pulling on the handle will cause the unit to
shift. The transfer case must be spun slightly and then it will shift.

*Note: The first cable shifters used an shift rail adapter on the shift rail for coupling the cables to the Atlas. The shift rails were

changed 7-1-07. This new style of rail is drilled and tapped to directly accept the threaded cable end and eliminate the shift rail
adapter. We switched back to the adapters fittings 8-16-10 for ease of installation of the cable to the Atlas. Some shift rails still
have the thread hole on the end of the shift rail. 3/15/12 newest shift rail to work with the new cable connection parts has a drilled
clearance hole in shift rail. (see photo next page)

This kit includes the latest version components for the shift rails that are drilled out. If you have the drilled and tapped shift rails,
you can install the cables into the rails directly or you can use a 7/32" drill and clearance the threads to use the new connection
pieces (aprox. .600" deep). The new connection pieces are the easiest to install without the potential to damage the cable.

This shifter will not fit the Allison transmission due to cable interferance with the stock adapter housing.

Jeep XJ's may require a bit of trimming on the console bezel insert.

NOTE: We recommend temporarly protecting the shifter cables with rubber hose or duct tape when routing

through the shifter floor hole as this will prevent damaging the outer cable housing.

SPECIAL NOTE: The components packaged in this kit have been assembled and machined for specific type of conversions. Modifications to any of the components
will void any possible warranty or return privileges. If you do not fully understand modifications or changes that will be required to complete your conversion, we strongly
recommend that you contact our sales department for more information. This instruction sheet is only to be used for the assembly of Advance Adapter components. We
recommend that a service manual pertaining to your vehicle be obtained for specific torque values, wiring diagrams and other related equipment. These manuals are normally
available at automotive dealerships and parts stores.

ATLAS TRANSFER CASE JEEP TJ

CABLE SHIFTER

NOTE: Refer to factory service manual for detailed disassembly instructions

1. For Jeeps with factory automatic transmission the first
step is to remove the shift buttom/spring detent assem­bly from the shifter handle. This can be done by using
a small flat head screw driver to "pry off" the shift
button end cap. To remove the handle, firmly grab and
pull up until it releases from the shift lever.

2. Using the same flat head screw driver, remove the
factory shift indicator assembly from the console.
Carefully remove indicator light bulb assembly and set
aside.

3. Depending on console style, you may have up to five
bolts securing the console. Two piece consoles only
require removal of two or possibly three bolts. One is
located in the front cup holder possibly under the rubber
insert. The second is found just to the right of the
transmission shift lever. Although uncommon, a third
bolt or plastic push pin is sometimes found on the front
of the console under the carpet.

4. Maneuver the console so that the stock transfer case
shift lever slips through the slot in the console. Remove
console and set aside for later.

5. Remove five mounting bolts securing the stock transfer
case shifter mount and save for later. These bolts will
sometimes be hard to remove because of corrosion in
the threads. Prior to removal, spray threads with a
thread lubricant. This step will ensure that the threads
of the factory "nut-serts" remain undamaged for instal­lation of new shifter assembly.

6. With the five mounting bolts removed, pull the shifter
assembly out of the floor far enough to access the nut.

NOTE: If the stock shifter bolts are missing or have been discarded. Replace with five 10-32" X .625" bolts

or screws and washers.
