does it do it when you let off the pedal? mine made a whining noise and i had no oil in the transfercase, check your fluid in the t-case and diffs.

my case was bone dry and it still let me shift into 4hi/4lo, I would check the case asap. They are not cheap to replace.

thanks for your help i will check it. it starts making the sound from like 5 km a hour and on. It sounds like a air leaking sound, and when driving if i let off the pedal it still does it, but of course not when im stopped. The trans shift fine and oil is good so it has to be the t case im sure.

i just finished checking everything out and the t case and trans are fine. when the truck is running and in park if i rev it up about 1200 rpm and up its making the noise, does anyone know if a water pump or water pump bearing makes a noise when it goes or is goin....or maby the power steering pump?????.
