the transfer case shifter has its own box. in the case. to shift (not a body fitted shifter like some 4wd have)
and only the lever is subject to forces, that can cause it to shift out of N, ....
the lever how ever, fits through body boots, and if the transmission mounts are loose, and and you hit a large bump
the transmission will move upward (it will bounce too) and this can cause the lever to move, against it's boot and shift out of 'N" BAM.
these are things to think about, when RV towing. (bumps happen)
some folks pack camping gear in to the car, on seats ,etc, and can bounce and land on the shifter... all are problematic.
not letting part #18 move, is a key fact.
