    99 2DR NP246 'Stuck' with noises coming from Transfer Case

    My tcase was stuck in 4Hi or 4lo I can't remember, but I could hear the Tcase motor and a clunk noise trying to disengage, but It would not come out of 4HI. I ended up jacking up the back tires off the ground I pushed 2HI and it worked. I don't even hear any clunk from your video but I thought...

    I can't get front drive shaft to push back into transfer case.

    Update: I did get the T case out on Sunday. I ended up cutting the u joint. A guy a few miles from me has a T case from a 1999 Tahoe. But does not have the car anymore. He scraps a lot of cars. So he doesn't know if it had 4 button switch. It still has the yoke and front drive shaft attached...

    I can't get front drive shaft to push back into transfer case.

    Yes, I'll get the front splined yoke from the junk yard. I'll let you know if I can get the T case out with front yoke attached, once i get the U joint out. I'm going to rent a ball joint/u joint press tomorrow. I am hoping I have enough clearance, do bring it down. How do you know or whats...

    I can't get front drive shaft to push back into transfer case.

    Let me ask a few questions So if i do get the front shaft out its likely trash? splines damaged rusted or whatever. Its my brothers truck so I just want to let him know of possibilities costs etc. Do you think a Sawzall would do the job cutting the yolk or U joint? I will focus on getting...

    I can't get front drive shaft to push back into transfer case.

    I ended up knocking the caps off early yesterday and I was able to get the front u joint out. But the Drive shaft is stuck in the Transfer Case nonetheless. I have used a tie strap pulling it forward and knocking on it pretty good but it wont budge. I'm on my back so I can't get the best...

    I can't get front drive shaft to push back into transfer case.

    Ok. I don't have the front jacked up so I will try that and see if it helps. I'll also try to spray some lube onto the splines. If i have to i'll unbolt the axle as well, I'll look into that. When I pulled the drain plug, of course no fluid came out, but it was plugged with what looks like...

    I can't get front drive shaft to push back into transfer case.

    I am working on a 1998 Tahoe z71 4x4. The transfer case was ran dry and is now making all kinds of noises. Front output shaft seal was unknowingly leaking and now the case is toast. This is the first time trying to pull the drive shaft so bare with me. I watched a few videos and followed...

    1999 tahoe.P0307 Misfire, compression test

    OK I will check the fuel pressure again and make sure my reading is correct. Would that cause a misfire? Should I change the o2 sensor I'm going to check the fuses first? I used a dashcmd app afew years ago with the Bluetooth elm (without the gm add on's), so i have used it before. My...

    1999 tahoe.P0307 Misfire, compression test

    Yes I changed the plug and switched the wires with other cylinders. same po307. But today I didn't continue to erase the code I just let it run. I tightened a few things like the air box and made sure the hose coming to the intake from the brake booster was more secure. I used a propane tank to...

I started the truck periodically checked the oil a few times and didn't notice anything abnormal. There is a...

The positive terminal on starter has constant power but the s terminal is not getting power when the key is turned to the run position.

    Different oil pressure sensor plug. Just installed a vortec

    That's true. Do you know if it'll run with this sensor unplugged? Just inquiring. Or will it tell the computer that its no oil pressure?

    Any how to's on removing/replacing 5.7 vortec Chevy tahoe

    Ill try to cut exhaust close to manifold. I have a sawzall , I think my bro has a cut off tool. Yeah I was able to get the tc bolts out so i'm leaving trans in place... So I have to support the trans while removing the engine? I thought the trans had its own mount/support. But thanks because I...

    Any how to's on removing/replacing 5.7 vortec Chevy tahoe

    Thanks. I took a lot of pictures. Distributor is already out. My motor was seized and I finally got it to turn, so I could get torque converter bolts removed. I have to get the trans/engine bolts out and cut the exhaust and she's ready to come out.

    Any how to's on removing/replacing 5.7 vortec Chevy tahoe

    That's true not likely the springs and valves holding the motor up.. Yeah I'm going with a used block motor. I wouldn't quite trust myself rebuilding or fixing a motor internally yet. But would this make it easier to pull with tc attached because it would be lighter (once i tore into it?) Is...

    Any how to's on removing/replacing 5.7 vortec Chevy tahoe

    Thanks guys I am getting a better mental picture of how everything goes and the pro's and cons. I know what you mean about the tc binding or damaging the seal because how the weight would be placed on the trans and tc, if its still attached. I don't think i am going to get this thing to turn...
