We have a 1999 Dodge Ram 1500 Quad with 5.9L automatic transmission with 4 wd. A while back my husband was using 4hi and there was a loud bang, the truck jumped a little and all of a sudden he had no 4wd. He assumed at the time that he lost all 4wd. Since that day, when slowing down (usually coming to a stop), you can hear something clanging somewhere underneath the truck as if the object is swaying and hitting something.
We thought it might be the chain inside of the transfer case. But now we are puzzled. My husband took the transfer case out and opened it up. When he opened the case, he found that he has his lo 4wd gears and two neutrals (no 4hi). The chain seems to be intact and everything else seems to be okay. Nothing looks broken and there are no marks from anything banging around. Amy ideas?
