Is the truck new to you?

If not, have you ever been able to shift the transfer case in the past??

Removal of the shifter and examination of the shifting rails and shifter bottom button might be enlightning.

Yes its new to me but IT has been in the family with one owner and he said when he parked it that it worked but I have never shifted it someone said there is a spring that might not be working right but I don't know where this spring is even located ????

The factory Service manual knows all.

Here is a link to the 1985 FSM.

Your truck should be similar. --

The FSM is great, but I don't think it recognizes aftermarket issues like
a 3 inch BL which is affecting my TC shifting, other resources cover the slack though...

Does this Pickup have the AISIN 4x4 Locking Hub Dial? Or is it not shifting in the transfer case? The Locking Hub Dial has a spring that goes in and out depending on freewheel of locked wheels to the axel.. check the front tires
