im in the process of buying a truck the same year with the same problem...from what i understand you need a vacuum diagram, because on the trucks(even with the 4x4shifter) the transfer case is still vacuum actuated...and vacuum lines crack and pop off. dig around for a diagram and see if im right about the problem...i hope i am, otherwise ill have to go through Maine weather with no 4x4 too...post what you find
