np242 problems
mine is a 91 with aw4 np242... and yesterday after a full day of belly scraping fun my 4wd decided to keep on going, I can switch it between part time and full time and still engage 4L but it wont go back to 2wd... well if I fiddle with it will go into 2wd for a second (but only for a second) and it will slide back to 4wd... I took alook under it and the linkage looks fine, no bends or breaks.
thx
im gone today so il only see this in the evening, but any help would be great thx again.
ps. its not just the light I can feel it at low speeds in the corners, havnt had time to jack it up yet.

Maybe the Linkage adjustments needs to be adjusted. You can slip or be marginally adjusted and with four wheeling, it can move things just enough to not positively engage. Clean the undercarriage, slide under, loosen the adjustment bolt and positively engage TC Im 2wd directly from the tc lever with Chanel lock pliers then tighten the adjustment bolt
