Could be worn body mounts or worn engine/trans mounts.

Shifter linkage needs adjusted.

I agree with you, but wouldn't the fact that it pops out while driving often mean the t-case or body is moving around?

Not always. That blue 83 I had last year kicked out of 4-Hi all the time. The guy I sold it to said they adjusted the t-case shifter linkage and fixed it.

1. Position transfer case shift lever in 4 Hi detent.
2. Push lower shifter lever forward to 4 Hi stop, then install rod swivel into shift lever hole.
3. Install 0.200 inch gage behind swivel as shown.
4. With shifter against 4 Hi stop, tighten rod nut (A) until it contacts gage.
5. Remove gage, then push swivel rearward against nut (A) and tighten nut (B).
