THat is strange as in the turbo 400 the parking device is a pawl which engages an toothed ring internally mounted on the output shaft of the TH400. it should not make a noise unless you are moving, or
the shaft is turning. Could the transmission shaft be turning, but something wrong in the transfer case?
