Yes there is an adjustment. Go to nyroc's tech site for instructions. Found out this weekend mine was the same way. HTH

Mine did that, but my dealer fixed it. He also said I could do it any time it does it by adjusting the connection at the front differential. He also said that once you adjust it, that it should not need any more adjusting since the way it comes from the factory is loose sometimes.

IF you run big heavy tires you will need to adjust it too.

Make sure your oil level in the front diff is full. If not it will not lock.
