I have a clunking noise when I put the truck in 4x4 high. But it doesn't happen right away it starts after a couple of minutes of driving and continues to do so every minute or two while driving. When I turn it off there's a delay for about a minute and the clunk is even louder coming out of 4x4. 2 wheel drive it's fine. Please help ,thanks
It could be your U joint on the axle drive.

My 2003 F150 Supercrew would not engage in 4x4, it ended up being the shifting fork in the front end, cost me $200.

I believe the "gizmo" your referring to would be the pump. Ford power steering pumps will get noisy if they have been run dry at one time. Be sure the fluid level is full and you have no leaks. If no leaks and fluid is full, but noise persists then replacing the pump would be your next course. Some pumps are louder than others, so don't be surprised if the new pump may have a little whine as well.
Transmission clunk can be caused by loose mounts, drive line components (axles, cv joints) or internal transmission issue. Flushing the transmission will not cure a transmission clunk. I don't know of any additives that will cure a transmission clunk as well. Have the transmission check out before you invest money in additives and flushes. Hope this helps. Please leave feedback.

Could be in the rear axle like gear slop. And you are sure it is coming from the rear right?

sounds like the transfer unit is going bad check level of oil in the case if burnt then you know what it is if ,it's not burnt check the front axel to see if it is leaking

Check your fulid levels in the transfer case. Also check the linkage and spray it down with WD-40
