I have a '83 K10 which I recently bought (auto transmission, auto locking hubs, everything is stock).
Put it in 4x4 low to get out of a small mud hole. Got out of mud, put back into 2wd.
Started driving down the highway, heard a loud clunking noise (like the hubs were still locked in or the transfer case was still in 4wd). I remembered back in the 80's seem like we had to reverse a short bit to get things to unlock, so I backed the truck up a bit. Clunking went away.
Can anyone shine some light on what is going on? Is reversing normal to get this vintage 4wd truck out of 4 wd? Many thanks!
