This is somewhat of a common problem and tends to be more common on the eariler trucks that have a softer output shaft.From the factory, the shift hub and the matching shift collar have a 2 degree taper that helps lock the t/case in gear.After thousands of miles in 2 wd, and then shifting into 4wd, the worn hubs were mated to the unused 4wd hub.This can result in a "locked in " condition which can usually be unlocked by shifting into reverse and working the clutch untill the hubs free up.Marlin
My '86 runner is stuck in 4wd and wont come out. Shifter knob feels like it is just flopping around. Any suggestions?
