USA blue rig OP Wheeler Well, I finally had the opportunity to tow the rig home and look under it a bit. I didn't have much time after I dropped it off but I did look under it while it was running and in gear. The driveshaft was not turning. I did notice that the idle dropped ever so slightly when I put it in gear. Does this tell you anything? Also, is it common or even possible to pull the transfer case from back of the tranny without removing the tranny? I think I will be doing this in a garage at home and not on a lift. I do have a tranny jack though.

To answer your question: when I rev it up, the it just revs up normally like it was in neutral. So I assume from what you are saying,it is not using the transmission. sounds like the transfer case. Are there anymore visual checks I can do on the drive plates spoken of prior to this before I go ahead and pull that transfer case? I think I will start on it this Saturday. Hope I can return the favor sometime for all this advice you have given me.
