Guess there are two sprag problems. One it won't engage. Two locked in forward or reverse sprag.
I had my bob at the mud pit Sat and was doing some stupid stuff (normal for me ) and I hopped the truck four different times for about a min. trying to pull someone out. When I say hopped I mean all four wheels off the ground and spinning on the Gov. and digging four deep holes.
Well something gave and if I went from forward to reverse I could now feel a small lag in the transfer case when I went forward. I was not real worried about it and when I get the truck home I guess I will find out what I broke and fix. (no problem when you got the parst and stuff right)
I went to leave the mud pit and hit the road and can you say bunny hopp.
I mean she was a hopping. Well I knew what I did and tryed to roll froward on a hill in reverse and no luck. I tryed rolling backwards in first gear and still locked. Me being stuborn I pushed her homeward and had to leave it in low range fourth as the bind on the sprag was like a brake being put on in the transfer. The house was only five miles and If it brakes then I I will fix but I'm gettin home. Two miles down the road and going slow so as not to hopp just in a bind I got pissed off and saw the grass shoulder was flat and comming up. I hit the grass at 25 mph and slamed on the brakes and heard a clunk in the transfer case. Well it poped out of what ever sprag it was in and drove home fine. I have not check to see if there is ingagement yet as I am still washing it but I had to wear the sprag down some. Guess I will swap out transfer cases and take that one apart sometime to see dammage.
