Hello,
I have a 1993 Land Cruiser and was driving the other day and was hearing a pitch whine, like old school radio hiss, and before i could pull over it made a big metal clank and the truck acted like you threw it into park. When i tried to move everything was engaged, power to the wheels, but the truck won't move. Now its up on jack stands and if the 4x4 is in neutral, and the trans is in park or neutral i can spin the wheels manually. If i put it in 4h or 4l it acts the same as it did on the ground, power to the wheels but they won't move. also when i spin the wheels manually the driveshafts don't move. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you all for looking.
 
My first suspicion is transfer case. Check the fluid level and look for metal bits.
