My friend's 99 seems to be sticking in part time. I changed the transfer case fluid and replaced with new dexron III. If in 2wd, you can go into part time then full and even low with no probs. The problem is that when you go back to 2wd it seems to stick in part time.
From there (2wd position, stuck part time), if you go into the full time position it STILL stays in part time b/c it bucks on the pavement. The only way I could get it to shift is on gravel, dirt... and at one point going down the road I think I "heard" it drop out because there was a clunk then it was in 2wd.
I've searched and I'm basically asking for some reassurance or tips that I didn't find in the other threads....is it possible that it just needs "broken in" a little since it hasn't been used in at least 6 months? I'm not sure how much the PO used 4wd, but it has 125k on it, and he did a lot of highway driving.
Also if someone could post a link or let me know how to adjust the linkage I'd appreciate it. -If that could be a problem that is... Thanks for any help!
