I just bought a 1988 1/2 ton 4x4 pos ifs truck. it has what I believe a transfercase problem but I'm not sure, I have not had time to get under it yet as I got it this morning and had to go to work, So i'm not real sure what case is in it yet, I assume it is a 208, any way In 2 high and 4 high
under a good load, as in putting the petal to the floor it lets out a real good grinding sound and does not really want to move, if you let off and press say half throttle it takes off fine. if you put it in 4 low it has no problems at all no matter how hard you take off. it seams like maybe the chain is slipping to me but I would think it would do it all the time.
Is this a sign of the shifter fork problem 208's have? the shifter works nice and smooth.I'm at a loss on what the problem is and don't want to throw money at it as the truck is not worth to much. any help would be great.
