Hmmmm! In my first response I think I misspoke.
What I meant
to say was that if the high range four wheel drive
button had
been pushed down the drive train might be in a
bind due to
jostling and moving around in which case there
will be
opposition to motion. The solution of course is to
shift it
out of 4WD by moving the transfer case shifter
into the Low
position and then back into High. If that is not
the problem
he might try disconnecting the driveshafts and
parking it
until you get a chance to look it over.
