Scott, sounds to me like the lock in the transfer has not been driven far enough. The cdl motor has a spring attatched so it can lock and when teeth line up, the spring engages them the rest of the way....its not easy, but i would double check the position of the cdl by first locking it, then dropping the crossmember, undoing the cdl and then rotating the gear into the transfer to ensure it is all the way home locked....if it is not all the way then obviously its been appart b4 and thats one reason why this cruiser was sooo cheap
it would have got stuck everywhere when the going got hard.
