Driveshaft/Transfer Case Confusion

I would think the 4 wheel lock attempt would be easy to try, turn the key on but don't start the truck, put it in 4 hi lock then start the truck and see if the rear wheels pull.
This is what I've been seeing on the net searches I've done when trucks break and they need to get out of a bind when trailing.

if it were me I would call around and talk to the local dyno shops, they will have experience with this type of issue as they will have to do something if they don't have an AWD capable dyno which most shops don't, also any 4 WD shop may have answers to your questions.

Neal,
I know it sounds like I’m making excuses, but I will try your suggestions. And I’ll make sure that I post a fix so anyone else who is having the same issue will know which direction to move. it’s just difficult to get anything done when you’re working 90 hours a week. I really appreciate all y’all guys help. I’ll report back early next week.

That HD bucket will not support the truck if the jack fails! Where are your wheel chocks located?

Home Depot bucket is the new creeper! I got rid of my old creeper and haven’t ordered the new Vector creeper. E-brake is the wheel chock hahahaha but seriously I was in a rush to replace both exhaust manifolds over night and had to be back at work at 5AM. No excuse for lack of safety but that’s never mattered much to me. I had a jack stand under there and a spare for the other side once I got it off the ground. Its sketchy but I gave it the earthquake test and it worked well.
