you have a CAD front axle most likely check your vacuum lines and i would look at locking the ring permanently to where that is not an issue again

missed that.
okay so that changes my response.
if you have the 249 (4 full time - n - 4 lo)
then the VC (viscous coupler) has gone bad. they are not to hard to change just VERY VERY expensive.
it will be easier and cheaper to swap in a 242 or 231 transfer case
