I have a 2000 dodge ram 1500, ( maunal pull to lock inn 4 wheel drive ) I cannot get the 4 wheel drive to lock in , but if i use 4 wheel drive low it will lock in to low but the front end wont lock the hubs. It makes a grinding metal on metal noise when you try to lock 4 wheel in and every once in a while during normal driving i hear a a click click noise mostly during a left turn.
ANY IDEAS ?
