Default 1991 F150 4x4 drivetrain problem.

Hi. I am having an issue with my truck. It has an E4OD transmission and the BW13-56 transfer case.
After starting the truck the column gear selector will move through the range, but none of the gears actually engage. I can roll the truck while selector in park. if I do roll the truck about 6 ft,,sometimes it will go into gear and drive fine until I change gears. Any ideas? Ps. fluids full.Thanks

sounds like linkage disconnect in either the regular shift or in the 4x4 shift. Be careful as you check the linkage while a friend moves the levers ...you might check the wiring to the 4x4, if it is solenoid, I don't recall the '91...my '92 has a solenoid on the 4x4 and automatic hubs. Yours may different.

IF not here, then shift pawl in to the valve body or the valve body.

others with that year and model will respond I am sure.

When did this start (time/miles)? Suddenly or progressively? There's a known problem with that MLPS - click these, read the captions, & follow the links:

There's also a known problem with that transfer case:
