once @ cityview 4x4 park drove around all day fine and forgot to unlock hubs until i got hime nearly 1 1/2 down the road. now my tcase seems to be making a rattling noise when engaged as i go over rough terrain and constantly rattling when im in reverse.

i know that tcase is chain driven and not like a small locking shaft. any answers to how i might fix this problem?

thanks

couldnt tell you what the prob is off the top of my head, but i can tell you that it is allmost certain that it has nothing to do with you not unlocking your hubs.

apparently is a common problem with MQ/MK tcase, nissan made one gear to small and it rattles. nothing to worry about i have been told. i still think its dodgy but
