Just bought the truck knowing there was a problem, and have no history on the truck. T/ case is in 4L. Start engine, hold brake pedal down and shift trans to neutral, then turn switch to either auto, or 4H. Hear a 'grinding' noise. Turn it back to 4L & it goes from the gringing noise to a 'thunk', and 4L engages. Drives in 4L, with, of course, the associated front end binding. I've read several posts here on stuck T/ case problems, but nothing about the grinding. What does it sound like to you? Does it sound like the actuator motor not allowing it to rotate to Auto, or 4H? Any ideas on a good starting point & which direction to turn from there?
Thanks...
