92 XLT Super Cab 4x4 2.9 V6
43k miles plus or minus 300,000 ;-)
Got my A4LD back in my Ranger about 1.5 months ago. Have had no issues. Shifts better then ever really.
Went around town with no issues forward or reverse.
All of a sudden after sitting for an hour or two I go to back out of a parking space and while it goes into reverse fine I have to give it about half throttle to get it to move backward. Hard to explain but it feels like something is binding up since it feels very much engaged.
Pushing the truck forward and in reverse shows no binding. Also checked brakes for dragging (had that issue in the past) and they were fine.
I removed rear drive shaft to make it front wheel drive and test out reverse in 4high. Same issue.
Is it possible a loose transfer case chain on the BW1354E is binding somehow in reverse? It was suggested as a possible thing from a friend.
Any other thoughts on a possible cause? I've exhausted everything I can think of.
