awd stuck, rear end not spinning

[maddadgsx]

Took my kids to the creek for some fun this weekend and car sunk where I parked it. Had to get pulld out by a passerby. I noticed my rear tires would not spin. I got home and startd replacing my axle due to a clunking noise in front and found the last .5 in of my int shaft was stripped. Could this be throwing my LSD off???

If you are not getting power to the rear wheels at all, I would check the transfer case. I don't think it has anything to do with your intermediate shaft for your cv.

Just barely fixed this same problem. It was the t case. I replaced it with another one. Just be sure you get exactly the one you need. If its a auto and 97 make sure it comes from a auto 97-99. 95-96 wont work.

tcase is quiet, I do notice however when turning my dshaft, I get 2 inches of free rotation? If I take my tcase off and shake it will that tell me??

Hold it firmly around the throat and shake it; it will tell you everything it knows.

You're welcome; that's what I'm here for.

Just take the bolts out and drop the t case and check out the splines and see if the output shaft spins when you spin the input shaft, maybe even hold the output shaft to give it some resistance and see what happens
