I drove to Albuquerque NM sunday and everything was fine but today i was driving in town i kind of hear i little noise i think it comes from my t case becouse if i mess with 4wheel drive stick it kind of goes away this noise it sounds like 2 metals rubing together or like saw dust betwen metal or something like that, I got this noise before but it was becouse my t-case fluid it was low but now i dont know what it could be? thanks

Yeah mine does the same thing. I asked the question somewhere and got no reply. Best I can figure is its in the linkage somewhere. If I mess with my linkage it quits for a few days and then starts again. And who knows it could be pump rub.

drain it and see what it looks like. Replace with 5-30 instead of atf. If you remove speed sensor to use as fill hole, you can use 3qts.

I just trashed the front shift fork in mine :mad: as well as the front case half.
Drain it and see if there's any filings. May be pump rub shavings.
