Going from 4WD to 2WD

Any time i put the truck from 4Hi or 4Lo into 2WD the entire truck jumps... Really badly. Its only started happening like 2 or 3 days ago. My truck has almost 99K on it. its an '04 4x4 with 3.73 Rear. Any ideas?

Prncss. I really don't think you'll need 4LO for anything unless you're pulling stumps with what you're using your truck for. Going into and out of 4Lo has always given me a clunk "locking feeling" in any of the 4x4's I've owned (which is 6 or 7, I've lost count). Another thing I've always done when coming out of 4Lo whether it's with auto lock hubs or manual is immediately back up about 50 feet just to make sure the front hubs disengage.

Sorry I missed your phone call the other day. It's been crazy here this week with the two teenagers we have left in the house. One of them ships out on the 14th though and that will leave us with one to deal with. I'm on vacation this week but we'll be traveling to Mo and back for the oldest kids' graduation from BCT.
