Full Time 4WD

I converted my Full time 4WD to Locking Hubs. The Problem that I am having is when I put her in 4 Wheel (either high or low) the transfer case tends to jump out of gear. I have adjusted and readjusted linkage with no luck. Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

same thing here, my 79 f150 converted won't stay in lock. Sometimes it slips out quietly, sometimes with a bang! Mine has the NP203 xfer case.

I have a NP205. (1975 F-250) I was wondering if I might have left something out when I installed the conversion kit. All of the gears looked good very little wear. Don't really know where to go from here. Keep tinkering I guess.

the 205 is not a full-time unit, only the 203 is.

I think for Dodge this is true, but Ford made them both part-time. Or was it only used as part-time for a few years then went back to full-time. I am thinking that Dodge and maybe Chevy had the full-time but not Ford, could be wrong.

Another edit: It looks like I have wasted space here, yet again. Just got off the phone with a neighbor - The xfer case I was thinking of had already been modified with the kit before we worked on the truck.
