On my way moving to Texas when I heard somewhat of a spinning noise from underneath my Explorer that would not stop. Long story short... after 8 hours and 3 mechanics it was determined that it was the transfer case. And since it was the transfer case... the transmission was probably damaged as well. Too much for me to repair so hopefully will part the car out. I now drive a Toyota Tercel (stinks being in Texas without a truck, but I am truly thankful to have a car) that will hopefully last me quite a while.

Every time I let off the gas pedal the damn thing lets out a wicked bastard of a noise!! I was just wondering if anyone could help me find out, or point me in the right direction?? Is there a clutch pack inside the transfer case??
