Actually Scott, your Durango has a Jeep/Chrysler "Selec-Trac" transfer case,
likely under a different name for the Dodge. In 4wd FULL, the center
differential uses a viscous coupling, for better on road behavior/gas
mileage. In 4wd Part-Time, it's locking the front and rear with a 50/50
split distribution of power.

ok, i finally figured out the Durango's transfer case... MY durango at
least has the part-time and full-time 4WD transfer case, and also has a
limited-slip rear differential, both of which were options. If I put it
in 4WD-FULL, it unlocks the center diff and it drives normally, i can make
U-turns and all that. 4WD-PART is for loose surfaces and it locks the
center diff. Did some tests, read the manual, now i understand it :)
