I have a 99 Tahoe that started making a grinding noise when I start accelerating while in 2H. It is not coming from the transmission and sounds like it is in the 4WD transfer case. I can put the truck in 4Lo and 4Hi (although the 4 HI light doesn't actually come on but feels like its in 4H). In both of these there is no grinding when starting to accelerate or driving. When I am back in 2H (my indicator light says I am in 2H), i get the grinding noise again at low acceleration. Once I get going above 20mph or so or if I let off the gas when I hear it, the grinding will go away Almost sounds like the 4WD transfer case gears are sitting too close and when I accelerate in 2H, there is a little bit of play that cause the gears to come in contact slightly. Not sure if this is the case but sure sounds like it. Any thoughts on this? I just dropped $1700 into this truck for another issue and need to fix this on a budget. Thanks in advance for any info.
