My BW1356 started slipping out of gear 2 years after the conversion to 4x4. I had the shift forks replaced and it worked for another 2 years and is now slipping out of gear again.
You have a great price and I would possibly like to use your guy if you are in NorCal.

Hello E350.
I am in Boise Idaho. I had a problem with my transfer case
poping out of low range if I was going down hill and let off
the gas. First thing I did was take off the shifter boot and
trim the back of the hole. I think when I would let off the
gas there was enough movement in the drive train that the
shifter hit the back of the hole and knocked the transfer case
out of low range. It did seem to help a little bit but I wound
up taking the T case out and having it gone through. My
transmission guy said it didn't look too bad and replaced something
on the shifter fork and resealed the T case. I finally cured
the thing. I went to a pick a part salvage yard and started
looking at different Ford trucks that had the 4R100 Trans
and the BW 1356 T case. What I found was on some of the
older model trucks the T case shifter had a metal plate
that bolted between the Trans and the T case shifter
pivot. The plate has a slot in it and the shifter pivot has
a little nub that rides in the slot. To put my T case into
low range I have to push the shifter towards the drivers
seat as I pull the shifter back into low range. The slot
has a stop in it and when you push the shifter towards
the seat and pull it back you clear the stop in the plate.
When you let the shifter return the nub on the pivot
will not go past the stop in the plate. That keeps the
thing from poping out of low range. I wish I could post
a picture of it but my computer skills aren't too sharp.
I hope my explanation on what I did is comprehendable.
Good luck, Steve.
