For some reason my 4wd doesn't disengage properly. I have the mechanical transfer case, and an automatic transmission. That makes it difficult to shift the transfer case back in after shifting it to neutral.
It wouldn't be a problem, but the front driveshaft vibrates. I replaced one of the u-joints, and it seems there's no way to keep the cups from battering out of position. Most joints that are retained by bolt on loops have a tab in the yoke casting to position them evenly and keep them from working out. Apparently not the case with the GMT400. What does a guy do to make them stay? I've tried torquing the crap out of them, but apparently that is not adequate.
