no,just a high pitch whining noise and a clunk,then it (the truck) kept rolling at 70 mph,i drove it the next day and it acts as if it is in 4wd even though dash switch is in 2wd

seems to,took it off road and it switched on,dash indicator came on,i went high speed in 4 hi and climbed a hill in 4 low no problem,it just does not "feel" right goin down the highway or in sharp paved turns,feels like 4wd is engaged on corners
