Guys, I just started hearing a slight whine coming from my transfer case the other day and it seems to be getting louder... Started out only at about 60 and above, but now I can hear it at 40 and above. Definitely coming from the transfer case. It does not change with gear changes or anything only road speed and is slightly louder while accellerating. Almost sounds like a noisy power steering pump, kinda that type of sound.
My question is, how do you tell how much slack is in the chain without tearing into it? I have hear of locking the rear DS, and rotating the front while in 4wd to see how much you can move it.. I can rotate mine about 1/4- 1/2 inch at the edge of the dust sheild by the joint... To me, this looks like too much?
