Hey all,
I recently purchased a used 2015 2500 tradesman with the 6.4L and 107K miles. I was driving to the store in the snow, roads completely covered, i shifted into 4 wheel drive before I even left the house. Going down the road at approx 20-25mph the transfer case shifted out of 4wd and back into 2wd. Btw it is a manual shift transfer case. So when this happened there was no noise such as grinding banging or else, it was almost like the lever wasnt fully back and it just fell back forward into 2wd.
I have an old jeep so ik what a bad transfer case shift feels like and how to shift manual transfer cases, So when i shift the lever into 4wd i dont feel a "pop" like it locked into place.
This has happened to me several times, testing it a few times on the run to the store. Everything seems normal nothing out of the odd, the truck even says 4wd shifting in progress both in and out.
as a side note the transmission was just rebuilt. my thinking is maybe the tightened a bolt a little to much but that just doesnt seem right.
