Why does my Silverado 4WD not fully engage?

It feels like it gets some power to the front wheels but they never fully engage. No service 4wd light comes on and 4wd buttons all work as they should. The hubs lock when 4wd is selected, and the truck shifts into low gear when 4lo is selected. The front wheels simply do not get the power that they should.

Why is the front wheel not engaged in a 4×4?

Could be possible that the transfer case is bad, and what you’re seeing is the driveshaft turning because the actuators have kicked in… but the only reason its turning is because the front wheels are. About the only way I could think of to rule that out would be to lift all 4 wheels and put it in gear.

What kind of differential does Silverado 2500 have?

Your transfer case has no differential or clutch pack to it- the 2500 has either the NP246 or NP263 (or variant thereof, at their core they are basically the same except for actuator).
