Hello everyone. I was spinning around on the ice this weekend with the wheels turned to the left. I heard a definite spline striping noise in the front somewhere. I let off the gas right away and it stopped. It was just for a second. What could that have been? Stripped splines on the half shafts, or maybe a cv? The 4 wheel drive works and have tested it on a hill. But i want to know what i might be looking at in the near future. Thanks

Hi Dirty, It is an 04 with the 2x4 switch. It has about 2400 miles on it. My first thought was the drive shaft coupling too. That is scary. The switch 2x4 engagement has always worked good. I stopped on and incline and gave it gas and spun all the tires to see if it would do it again. It wouldn't. Maybe i should try it again. If it is the drive shaft coupler, it should slip again very easy you would think, right? I have never read of the 2x4 engagement causing trouble on this forum but i suppose it could. Thanks
