Im getting a popping/binding up in the front end when if 4wd. I checked the cv there are no cuts or rips in the boot and they look fine. It is fine in 2wd only when put under load it pops or binds. Has anyone had this problem or know what it could be??

 

if it is binding when you make a turn on dry pavement in 4wd it is normal, just the way that 4wd works

 

+1 take it into some grass or anywhere offroad and try it. I wouldn't run it in 4x4 on dry pavement either..

 

Which transfer case? The 242 awd setting doesn't bind but the regular 4hi does, the 241 only has a 4hi setting, both have 4lo.

 

Adukart is correct, AWD and 4 wheel drive are completely different.

 

it when i drive in a straight line not when i turn and to be honest i just bought this durango i dont think its the awd it got 2wd 4hi n and 4 low. pretty much a newb with the dodges. it dose it in 4hi and low and even in a straight line but dose not do it in 2wd only 4wd

Ok so it is the 241, but that is peculiar. It really sounds like the cv's if it is doing it in a straight line. Or have you checked the front u-joints? If they are shot and binding up when the transfer case is engaged it could make a racket.

 

I have checked them for play and have hardy any play in them at all. it just hard to diagnose to me because it only dose it under load. I'm hopeing its the cv's and not a t-case for front diff it dose not sound like that could be it to me dose it??

 

Just because the boots on the cv look fone doesnt mean it is. Try and wiggle it around a little by hand. It shouldn't move. If it does then there's your problem.
