99 TJ 6cyl automatic.
I bought the jeep and it had a 4" suspension lift and 3" body lift...that was a bit excessive for me.
I took the 3 inch body lift off and forgot about the extenders for the radiatior, steering, and 4wd linkage . I took that off and put the factory 4wd linkage thing back in to the bracket but now my transfer case is only in neutral.
Now my only two options are neutral and 4lo. I can't shift beyond that. Do i need to add the extender back on since i have the 4" suspension lift?
 
I'd pull the linkage on the t case and shift it manually to confirm it shift fine..

Yep, thats it. When you change the distance between the body and the t-case, it changes the geometry of the linkage. It will shift towards the 2hi end when you lift it, and towards the 4lo end when you lower it.
