Hey guys last summer was having trouble getting the truck to go in 4wd so replaced the transfer case motor actuator and worked fine until this winter I slid into a ditch put it in 4wd got out of ditch but it will not shift out of 4wd now, could it be the front diff actuator ?, or is there something else to check, thanks for any info - advice

I would check the transfer case as this has happened to me twice. The first time the front bearing went in the transfer case and took out everything behind it. Now (2nd time), my transfer case clutches are fried and the transfer case is jamming up.

I would remove the transfer case shift motor, then using pliers, try to shift the transfer case. If you have a good scanner you can activate the front diff to check if that is working. I would do this at home incase the t-case is shot and it gets jammed in N/4x4h/4×4l/2wd. Theres vidieos on youtube on how to set the shiftmotor into N to put it back on. This is what I've done on my np246, i don't know how much of this applies to other t-cases (GM used the np246 for 2002-2008)
