Command-Trac substitute? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

The vacuum actuated Command-Trac in the Dana 30 front end of my YJ is not working. I hate those damn things. I've been told there is a manual replacement (some kind of pull cable or lever?). Anyone know what I'm talking about? Name of the part, manufacturer,... anything would help. Right now I have a 2wd until I can get this thing working (unless I engage the ARB, then I have a 3wd)!

I know that if there was flaming allowed here I'd get flamed for linking to this as a lot of people don't like Adam for various reasons but a guy over on GLXJ had the same problem (just in an XJ obviously, ha).

Here's the thread.

At least I think that's the problem you're having.

I replaced the vacum w/ a 4x4 posi lock cable about 6 yrs ago and have had no problems exept for when I'm in the snow it take a couple of pulls to warm it up. Know I have a lol right and know I love having it. I'd rather have hubs.
