What model truck can i use a tranfer case to put in a tow truck that had motor pulled and a bigger one put in 91 chey

The grinding is the transmission, this is normal because the transmission is turn when you put it in park. Don't do it to much. Most likely the motor on the transfer case has died. Check the plug first, Clean any corrosion then retry. You can remove the motor and put the case in 2hi until you replace the part or have it checked out.

it has a electronic motor on the transfere case the changes the 2 wheel to 4 wheel. your may be on its way out

the encoder motor on those style transfer cases are notorious for failing and that sounds like the beginning of the end for the one you have.

What you can try is to start the vehicle, put it in Neutral, press on the brake, and while doing that press the 4x4 Button and hold it for 5 seconds. If this does not help, you will need an Owners Manual for Year specific information.

You want to reset your Transfer case from being towed to Run. It sounds like your unit was switched to the current Mode for transit. Another idea is to contact the Tow company who delivered it for advice on this setting. Even if you used a Tow dolly yourself, I imagine the towtruck drivers would need to know how to switch this setting when they tow an Explorer themselves.

This Tow mode is used to enable towing the SUV behind a Motorhome. The Automatic transmissions need lubricant on the seals or they will burn up. The Tow mode disengages the Transfer case and keeps some of the parts from turning. You need to look at Year specific information because of the difference in Automatic transmissions. For a short time, there were engine options which included a different transmission for better mileage with bigger engines.

The older models needed a Tow dolly and the newer models can just use a Tow bar on the frame.
I hope my opening statement fixed your problem. Should you want to Tow your SUV behind another vehicle, you will need to use the Tow feature.

The Transfer Case Control Module (TCCM) in this model year have been known to hang up, try pulling fuse #48 (4WD) in the rear fuse panel located under the left rear seat. Reinstall fuse and see if everything works OK, if not, you probably need to replace the TCCM.

Put Transfer case in neutral
Put Trans in neutral


Remember your putting wear, on all front and rear axles components,when flat towing.
So---don't go over 50MPH or tow more than 300 miles

if it is 4wd with an automatic trans and you can put the transfer case in neutral it is ok to tow, any models with a manual trans. are ok to tow also

Hi! There may be a problem on your wiper motor. The wiper motor may be weak thats why it doesnt have enough power to pull it down. Try replacing the wiper blades too for it may be worn and could be causing the motor to be forced too much.

they are made by a compamny called NEW PROCESS

I would say to check the timing it may be retarded which would lessen the power. also you didnt say if it miss fires there could be a number of causes for the lack of power.
