    Daughter's 2000 Explorer (125K miles) started having ratcheting sound when decelerating and it was determined that the issue was most likely with the transfer case.

    Disconnecting Front Drive Shaft

    I posted yesterday about replacing a F77A 7A 195 Ga transfer case with a F57A 7A 195 CA transfer case. They seem to be the same except for the connection to the front drive shaft. If they are in fact the same, can I replace the old GA with the new CA and just pull the front drive shaft out? I...

It doesn't do it decelerating, or while turning. Just while under acceleration. At first I thought the chain was slipping cause this...
