    What would cause my transmission not being able to go In 1st or reverse when truck is running but will go right in gear when transfer case is in neutral ?

    I'd say clutch adjustment since 1st and reverse aren't synchronized.

    Clutch dragging, as Glenn suggested, you should check the linkage and action.

    Glad you found that. That's two tight pilots in the past few months!
