Default 4x4 shifter rattle springs

Finally figured out why jeep would not move at times....4x4 shifters were loose with lots of play and they were easily falling out of their position-a look underneath showed that both anti-rattle springs were not in the right place and they were not even positioned-(pushed onto the shift shaft)-took apart top cover & rubber, exposed shift leavers-took out loosely lying springs and placed them in their proper positions on the shifters-pressed them onto the shift shaft and then made sure they clipped into the notches/keepers on the shifters-done...all tight now and more accurate shifting with positive detents.

Thanks Rob,
