Anyone out there versed in the specific noises made by NP231 transfer cases? When I shift into 4HI and hit the gas, it makes a sound similar to grinding regular manual transmission gears. The Jeep moves, but doesn't seem to pull as hard as it should.
Knowing nothing about the innards or working of the stock transfer case, I'm asking if there's a possibility this noise is the result of something not adjusted correctly, or is the t-case fubar'd?
I actually discovered the t-case noise a while ago and have been keeping an eye out for a replacement NP231. Recently however, a coworker suggested that the "linkage for engaging the t-case" may be out of adjustment?
Sound plausible?
