There are 2 systems.
one is a part time system only.the 4x4 locks and is for ice mud and snow.Driving full time will damage the transfer case.The other system is a full time system and the selector says 2wd,4wd part time ,4wd full time and 4 lo. if in full time,it can be driven all the time even on dry roads.The full time is really an all wheel drive system.
the 4low is a very low gear and the main shifter has to be put in neutral and then the transfer case put in 4 low.attempting to put it in 4 low while in "drive" will make a gear grinding noise.
getting out of 4 low is the opposite.shifter to neutral and then put it in 2wd and then in drive.The newer durango has an electronic transfer case with a dial on the dash.The 2002 was available with 2wd,4wd,awd and 4 lo on a switch.The 1999 has the lever on the floor .

We just bought a 1999 Durango and last trying to make sure 4x4 would work you could put shifter into 4 wheel pt but if you tried 4x4 it did nothing and trying to put into lo all it did was grind, any ideas?
My 1999 dodge durango part time 4 wheel drive light stays on even when i am in 2 wheel drive. any thoughts ?

Bad NEW thermostat? I had the same problem on my first generation Dakota. The problem for me turned out to be the DODGE thermostat I used to replace the old Dodge part. I went and got a Stant from local auto parts store using the standard temperature spec and quit shivering the next time I drove it. I hope that helps!

It's a big job. Drain the coolant down, recover the freon in the ac system and disconnect the lines and heater hoses. Lower the steering column, remove the instrument panel assembly, remove the heater housing. Split the case halves on the housing and there you are. Usually around 500 to 700 dollars at a dealership.
SOURCE: how do you put a water pump i a 1999 dodge durango
First disconnectthe cable from negative terminal of the battery. drain the cooling system if the coolant is relatively new or in good condition, save it. remove the cooling fan and shroud. remove the drive belt and water pump pulley. loosen the clamps and detach the hoses from the water pump. if stuck try to twist to break seal. check hoses if bad replace. on v6 & v8 remove the water pump coolant return tube mounting bolt. Remove the bolts and detach the water pump from the engine. Note: the location of the various lengths and different types of bolts as you remove them. to ensure correct installation. on v8 models reach above the water pump with pilers to release the hose clamp on the bypass hose.clean the bolt & and the threaded hoses in the engine. compare the new pump with the old one make sure there identical. remove all traces of old gasket material from engine.
