Re: 203 transfer case problems
 

Ok now I put the truck on jack stands and put it in 4x4 and had someone watch the front shaft with it in gear and the front shaft would turn but the front wheels won't, so does this just leave the hubs as the problem?

Re: 203 transfer case problems
 

Hubs or differential, I think. Hubs are more likely. A good set of Warn 9790 hubs are 100 bucks a pair at Summit. That's cheaper as a first step than doing anything with the diff.

Well I found the problem the cross pin bolt had evidently backed and the cross pin slip down and broke.

Re: 203 transfer case problems
 

Did it break the carrier or just mangle the cross pin?

Re: 203 transfer case problems
 

It broke the cross pin but I had one from a 70 nova that I had fixed and I'm putting it all back together now.

Maybe clean the threads with a small amount of solvent and assemble the lock bolt with a dot or two of Loctite 243. Then let it cure 24hours before filling with oil and driving.

Loctite 243 is oil resistant Loctite 242 is not.
