4x4 sounds
So i bought a 1992 XJ and the guy told me four wheel drive worked but made horrible noises. he thought that the axle shafts stripped out. well i went to replace them and found out that the shafts were in excellent shape but needed to replace a U joint. Problem solved right? wrong. it still works but still makes sounds. it sounds like its coming from the transfer case and it sounds like its slipping. it only does it when im trying to actually use the 4x4. as in trying to get out of a muddy situation. any ideas? vacuum control motor thingy?

Does sound like the chain. But if has been slipping for a while the gears may be damaged. Might be cheaper to just get a TC from a JY. Could be Just miss-adjusted linkage. Adjust the linkage to see if that helps. If not pull the TC, crack it open and take a look, if the gears aren't all chewed up rplace the chain.
