I have a 99 with only 53000 miles. At 45000 I put new tires on the front not realizing the AWD rule of keeping equal diameter on all 4 to avoid stress on the drivetrain. So at 48000 my transfer case was making so much noise I had to have it replaced. Still didn't realize it might be a tire problem. Now, of course, it's making noise again. 4WD doesn't sound bad 'cause I rarely use it. Is there any way I can get AWD bypassed so I'm in 2wd until I need either 4H or 4L? Can a mechanic just get under there and render the AWD system part of the transfer case non-functional?
