No problem with mine, but that's not to say it can't have problems. Does it engage in 4HI ok, or have problems with both 4HI and 4LO?

Yes, they can and do fail. Mine stranded me over 100 miles from home. The tow bill cost me more than the parts to fix it.

Here's my story along with some pictures of the inside of the t-case.

Same with me. The truck would not move under it's own power. Did you see the pictures in that thread? The shift fork wore out completely.

yes, i've found your pictures on the site.. this could be very helpful.. the reason im leaning towards the shift motor though, is because my dash isnt registering the change from 2wd to 4 wd on my instrument cluster.. and also i hear absolutly no attempt to shift under the truck, when i had the girlfried turn the switch for me....
sorry, i should have been more specific when i first posted.. maybe you could shed some light on the new problem

I know this is simple, but have you checked your fuses? I've searched through troubles before just to end up finding it was a fuse...and that's pretty humbling.

Oh, you must be talking about your ESOF. I have full manual control on mine and assumed that your truck was stuck on the road somewhere.
