Mentally Unstable..
First off, the truck is a 1993 F250, ZF 5 speed and a BW 1356. the front hubs are not the issue, nor is the front differential. The DS will not lock in and engage.
I park the truck on the side of the street, up against the snow bank due to it not fitting in the driveway with the other vehicles. I go out to take off the plow. I started it, let it idle for 5 minutes while I moved teh car to put the plow in the driveway.
I hop in the truck, put it in first gear and ease out on the clutch...it won't move because one back tire is on ice. No big deal, the hubs are locked in, so I pull the T case back one notch to go into high. I ease out on the clutch, the truck moves 6 inches and then I hear a BANG, the can of WD I had on the dash comes flying off and the CD player skipped....yea. Not what you want to hear.
The truck wouldn't move, I was stil on ice. So I took the T case out of 4x4, I backed up onto dry asphalt and pulled into the driveway, took the plow off.
Then I pake the truck to the little field down below, chain it to a tree, put it in 4x4, put it in first gear and let the clutch out, I got out, stepped back and looked under the truck, the front DS isn't turning.
I got it out of the field, drove to the driveway and laid underneath. No matter WHAT position I put the T case in, the front DS will not engage inside. It's full of ATF, it's pretty clean with no signs of water or metal particles. The chain looks to be connected from what I can see, and all I can figgure is I stripped out something inside or broke off an engagement fork.
Any ideas? Worth rebuilding or just look for a used BW 1356?
