Hey, I'm looking for some advice. After a 14" of snow fall in OKC, i took my 82 blazer out 4wheelin. Now, (several days later) It feels like i can't get my truck out of 4wd. The lever shifts easy and the dash light goes out, but when i turn, it feels like the front wheels are pulling and its difficult to make tight turns.
any suggestions? thanks!
 
If you have auto hubs are they staying locked. If you jack it up and spin the driveshaft does one or both front wheels turn with the shaft or does the shaft spin with no tire movement.

Do that with the t-case in 2 wheel drive.
 
I drive in 2 wheel with both hubs locked all winter long and it steers normal. And auto hubs usually won't lock when they fail.

When you say it shifts easy, is it excessively easy?
 
Shift into 2 wheel, drive it forward a few feet, then reverse it for a good long stretch. Do that a couple times, maybe your auto lockers are just wearing out. I've seen alot of auto lock hubs take a LONG time to engage/disengage.
