    I had some transfer case noise. I just want to warn you. If you buy a used transfer case. You may not know if you have a matched gear set. I found out that all the gears in my transfer case was wrong. Here is the video. I have now solved the problem with the right gear set. Works good now.

    Locking hubs on all four wheels. Best way to flat tow.

    ahhh. ok. at first i thought it was an illusion and then i thought it was the front but then seen it was the rear. locking hubs explains it all.
