Rockwell T221 Shift Linkage

[Chaparralman1974]

I actually have two Rockwell transfer cases for my truck. When I took them apart, I noticed that the springs for the poppet balls in my original case were a good 1/2" shorter than the ones in the spare case that came from another 67. They were definitely cut down as you could see the grinding marks on them. As I reassembled both cases (I was using the spare one as a guide) I noticed that the replacement case was much harder to shift on the bench that my original one. I am guessing that the reason they were cut down at some point was to make shifting easier.
