I am getting close to wrapping up a vortec swap in my 62, and have noticed some odd behavior from my transfer case. Wondering if anyone has a recommendation, or experience with something similar.
Basically it seems like the 4l60 doesn't stop spinning enough for the transfer case to be shifted without grinding. With the engine off it shifts fine, but if in park or neutral it grinds going from 2H to 4L and back. It is also very hard to shift with the engine running. My transmission then grinds going back into park after shifting into 4L.
Has anyone else experienced this with the 4l60? Or any ideas on what could be causing this?
Here is a quick video to demonstrate.
Additionally, (and not sure if this could be related), I have a loud whine coming from the transfer case while driving (not while idling). I replaced the input gear with the long spline version when I did the rebuild, and have all new bearings. It is very similar to the noise in @TexFJ 's video in his post.
I'll be dropping the oil to check for metal and preparing to do another rebuild with maybe new gears, but if anyone has anything else to keep an eye out for i'd appreciate the tip.
Thanks.
