Hope that helps- step by step.
Pops out cause ur shift bushing is worn and gives the lever room to move/ pop out- as I've been led to understand...
A new urethane shift sheet/bushing is the fix according to these DIY links, bearing wholesalers or the like would be the go.

I'm sure it has alot more load on it then in stock condition... V6 + 5.14 + 38's = A smile on duncan's face, and a heap of drive line loading

Is your truck body lifted at all ?? (body shifts a little on the sideslope knocks the gear lever)
The shift sheet is only a problem when changing from high to low etc ..
The gears should not jump out under load that sounds more like a setup issue to me..

Stumped's zook with 5.14's has similar issue with jumping out of 4wd similar to you, he too looked at the shimming up of the front output to provide a better contace. Will try to contact him and see what he did in the end. If the silly bugger hadnt rolled it we might get a better answer from him though

also make sure ur front ts is not bottoming out, this can cause probs aswell.
