Just put in a salvage tranny E4OD, shifted smooth worked fine and after 100 miles I went to pull a log outta the holler I put it in neutral and 4x4 backed up to the log and now the truck only has reverse but will move but barely across the shop floor... im hoping it could be the transfer case and not tranny again.. went through three..

check the rear differential as well as the transfer case...you may have broken something in both of them...i have seen it happen...since 4low uses a different gear it is possible for it to move in low and not 4 high

I figured I'd write a followup in case it helps somebody else.
Per @ccn7's information I did some troubleshooting and determined that the problem was the thermal linear actuator (TLA) [GM# 26013495). I ordered an aftermarket replacement (600-100) from Amazon.com cheaper than I could get wholesale from a parts store.
It worked except that I had to remove the electrical connector from the new unit and attach the connector from the old unit. Apparently the one I ordered is for trucks manufactured before 01-02-1996. Instead, I should have ordered the newer design (600-101) and my connector would have fit. (Or so I'm lead to believe.)
I've also discovered that you can get a replacement kit that eliminates the TLA altogether. It's more expensive and more work to install, but apparently it provides additional benefits over the standard TLA. Google Posi-lok if you're interested.
Thanks for stearing me in the right direction ccn7!

If check engine light is on ,remove battery cable, you have an electrical problem, maybe fuse?
