Default t-case problem

my trasfer case randomly will pop out of 4lo and just make this loud *** grinding noise. also sometimes the shift linkage comes disconnected. i bought a new linkage bushing thinking it would fix the problem but it still happens. what do you think

Did you install a transfer case lowering kit? If so you need to readjust your linkage. If not it may still just need to be adjusted.
