Re: cherokee will not take 4 wheel drive

Sounds like the linkage might be out of adjustment...also being a 90 you may well have the vacuum-disconnect front axle, which may not be engaging properly.

If you have this axle, there will be a relatively large vacuum motor strapped onto the passenger side of your front axle....even if your transfer case is working properly, if that vacuum motor isnt doing its thing, it wont work.

Not a problem, glad you got it working. Did the part-time light go off?
