Truck will go into all gears but drive. When shifted in drive whining starts and will not move. When I'm under the truck I can push the lever on transmission to make noise stop.

It sounds like you have a clogged-up transmission filter, but to be sure can you upload a short video of the issue so I can hear it? Here is a guide that can walk you through the transmission service with instructions below to help you with your truck:
