just to clear this up, all D1's have the case and linkage that can lock. 99 to mid 01 the same case was used, but no linkage. You can buy the linkage and hook up the existing mechanism, or get under your truck and lock it manually. They did not come back with this feature until 2004, so the late 2001 to 2003 you can not lock unless you re-build the case and add the mechanism. You can not lock a 2003.
It is never a good idea to run long distances with either shaft removed. The differentials are smaller and will not hold up to the stress put on them.

Got it - thanks...
So I am buying a low miles '04 t-case with all linkage and shifter locally, then for safe measure see if i can't get a rebuild kit for it before install.
Thanks again-

04 D2 all stock - transfercase
I pulled my front driveshaft and after reading some post, realizes that I can still drive it by manually adjusting the CDL. Everyone talked about a 10mm bolt. Is it normal that I was able to engage and disengage by hand? All I did was push or pull the rod and it worked.
