Abstract: An apparatus and method for converting an internal-linkage type of a transfer case from single lever to dual lever control includes a sleeve that is adapted for placement into a housing of the transfer case. A pivot pin is disposed in the sleeve and defines a pivot axis. The pivot pin passes through a first pivot hole in a first arm and a second pivot hole in a second arm. The first arm includes a first arcuate end at one end thereof and the second arm includes a second arcuate end at one end thereof. The first and second arcuate ends are each adapted to cooperate with a member in the transfer case sufficient for the first arm to select either a two or a four wheel drive mode and for the second arm to select either a high or a low gear range when the first and second arms are pivoted about the axis. A first and a second shift lever are attached to the first and second arms and a protective boot covers at least a portion of the housing.
