Do you have the owner's manual? If so, does it list your low-range gear as 2.28:1 or 2:1?
Revo 3:1 install, the saga continues.

Solved it. There were a few things I ****ed up. At first I thought I had the high-low hub on upside down. But really that part would be nearly impossible to put on upside down. Or at least or would have issues getting all the parts in if I did do that. The upside down part was the high-low sleeve. They don't mention this in the instructions, but if you look at the diagram there is instruction on which side the grooved end should face. Easy to miss as everything fits into place with this installed incorrectly. I've worked on cars all my life, but this is my first time tinkering with the internals of a manual trans/transfer case.
Having this upside down somehow lead my low gear synchro to jam onto the low gear so it would no longer slip. It was fine if in low, but in high it was engaging both high and low, so not moving at all including in 2 high. I put it all back together the right way and all is good. I feel like a pro at getting those snap rings in. No zip ties, I just have a good set of snap ring pliers.
Trans is off to the pressure washer at my buddy's work. Pulling the motor soon to swap in my rebuilt long block. Got a lot of **** still to do.
