You might just be better off getting an aftermarket transfercase or even trying to adapt an FJ cruiser manual transfercase (which may be easier to be honest.)

I would have to have a tcase in front of me, but just off the pics ive seen, I think an external shift linkage could be setup using the existing shift rails.
altho, a set of dedicated rails would likely work better.
luckily, my actuator was replaced when I bought it. I think it if ever fails, i'll attempt to fabricate some sort of mechanical linkage system.

im pretty that before me, mine had never been shifted into low range. due to this, it was stuck. I wasn't surprised really. im just glad that because of this site I knew to check it on the test drive.
