- 1985 CJ7. Lifted 1.25; nutter bypass; MC2150, Team Rush Upgrade with a MSB A6 Ignition Mod.
This problem started after a 1.25 in. body lift. When shifting into second, it would hit the edge of the floorboard and would slip back into neutral while driving. Thinking the lip of the floorboard was keeping it from engaging properly, I trimmed up the floorboard so that in gear the shifter doesn't touch. But the problem still exists. I haven't pulled the floorboard up, but I am suspecting that it has something to do with the linkage being torqued somehow from the lift that isn't allowing it to engage properly. Anyone had a problem like this before or know of a solution. I will be pulling it apart on New Years. ![Cool :cool: :cool:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
