4WD Shaking when Braking 3rd gen

[lucidspoon]

I haven't had much experience with driving in 4WD. I usually just turn it on for the hell of it when I'm turning around in my back yard.

But tonight, I was driving down a gravel road and was all over the place, so I turned it on and was fine. But when I came up to a stop sign, there was kind of a clunking and shaking when I got down to about 5 - 10 mph. Once I got below that, it was fine all the way to full stop. It happened again at the next stop sign too, but didn't happen after turning 4WD off.

Am I doing something wrong? Or does it seem like it could be an issue?

Thanks

What year? That makes a big difference... If a 2010 is it a Limited model?

Sorry! I can't believe I forgot to mention that!

It's a '97 Limited with 144,000 miles.

Perhaps just a little driveline binding. If you're on gravel I wouldn't worry about it but, as you know, don't drive it in 4wd on dry pavement as the tires can't slip enough to relieve the binding.

The OP placed it here. In order to get more views/answers from those who know I moved it to 3rd and then back to the Problems and Warranty issues section. I was trying to help the OP.
