Does the drive line coming out of the transfer case going to the front turn with relation to the rear drive line?

(Yes) Then your actuator, or donkey dick in your front end is likely to blame

No your could have transfer case issues or a improper install on the actuator on the t-case

Send me your email via PM and I'll send you a document that steps you though the troubleshooting.

I've had it up on free file hosting a couple times, but it keeps getting deleted after a couple weeks.

I had to file host it again. It's 47 mb and too big to email apparently:

http://www.filedropper.com/pushbutton4x4

Go for the gray colored "download this file" button and it should ask you to enter a captcha style code. The other ones on the page are advertisement links.

Don't try and download it on a phone, get to a laptop or desktop with high speed internet.
