Is it normal for the axle spline end that the 4wd actuator is in when 4wd is not engaged to wobble around or is there a bearing in side holding it in place.
My same thought is to why you only replaced the housing and the hardware but no information about as to why you reuse the switch and the part the vacuum lines go to and the collar part I would imagine thats stuff would need to be replaced or at least some information on how to know if mine are still good ?
What liquid is that coming out of the axle when you removed the actuator? I would like to do this repair but can't seem to find what fluid that would be? Do this then drain and refill the front diff? Is it that gear oil?
All I seen the whole time was your hands
Is there any way to test and see if I need an actuator? My truck isn't shifting into 4 wheel drive and I'm curious if this is the problem
What was wrong with the housing? Why not replace the vac actuator and the switch?
It seemed the only thing replaced was the housing and not the actual actuator.
Any chance the connector to the switch is sold by you? I had the wire break and not enough space to solder securely
"Original four wheel drive actuator"…..pretty sure Dorman isn't OEM….and of course the new one matches the old one, it's the same manufacturer….
When you removed that housing cover fluid came out, differential fluid I’m guessing, how did you get fluid back in? Does the gear oil move down the axle shafts? Just don’t want my shift fork and new pads burning up against the metal collar
