Hello,

I have searched but am having trouble determining if what I read relates to my "problem". My problem is, is that there is drivetrain slack, and I can hear the take up on accel or decel. I made a quick video with my phone (not the best quality) to be clear on my situation. What I want to know is what you see in the video appears to be something I should fix, or something I should ignore. Hopefully its not horribly bad, but I don't have very much experience when it comes to 4wd related components and I would like to learn.

Detail on jeep:
1994 Sport
124k miles
4.0 w AW4 auto tranny
np 231 transfer case
stock wheels and stock size tires
stock axles

Thank you in advance!

 

from that video its impossible to tell, a little play in the driveshaft is normal.

The if i had to guess i would bet the clunk is a bad motor mount, take a pic of those and post em up. A stretched chain will usually grind/slip or make a rubbing metal to metal sound on the bottom of the xfer case cover.
