You need to use the words to, too, and two (2) appropriately or this is a little confusing.

Lol. I commented because I would attempt to help you if I could decipher the posts. However, from what I can tell it looks like you want to get power to the front while in 2wd...

No that's. Not what I was asking. When the transfer case is in 4wd hi or lo it dosent let the rear wheels pull the front just pulls it will switch from driver side wheel to passenger side wheel but if u put it in 2 wd the rear works . From what I read so far when u put the transfer case in 4wd lo its supposed to make the front and rear pull just at different speeds I guess the transfer case is not going into low range is there some way to lock the transfer case into lo. Range were both front and rear will pull???

4 low locks the TC into 50/50 torque split front and rear. this is a mechanical lock so if you are not getting any power to the rear (be careful to seriously verify this) then you will likely need to pull the TC apart. You cannot be locked into front only for 4 low, so if youre in 4 low and getting power to an axle then you are definitely in, but something else is up

Is this all you do is come on to these forums to argue with everyone? Damn near every post by you is either full of poor advice or incorrect information, and I am not talking about just this board.
