I did some corrections on my posts above, in case you need to reference it while you are doing this.

The best reference for this is www.gmtnation.com . The whole website is geared to that truck, and there are some really knowledgeable folks over there.

Just ask @OR VietVet !

This were I at so far this thing is such a b!c!h I wish it would just come out but what do you think do I just slowly keep at it each day, got 20 before work over for that's bout were she at for todayits so sad bc I have the brand new actuator housing crap and new axles but can't get that stupid thing

And post in this post maybe.. Or start your own referring to this post..

Hello to all the fellow GMT users on here. I am new to forums but think I have the gist of it. I have recently been having trouble with my 4x4 not engaging in my 2004 trailblazer. Switch it over to 4hi and the actuator and transfer case whirring sounds are present and the indicator light...

I am also on that forum with this same screen name, so if I can help there I will.

Not many on this forum have had this, because these full size trucks that this forum is about have a separate unit, whereas you and I have a integrated unit.
