i have a 1992 ford ex xlt.. did a portion of this post yesterday, bought a t20 bit for about 4$ found a piece of rubber hose at the parts store, for free. brought the shift motor in, showed him the mashed rubber piece inside the shift motor, and explained my frustration at the fact that , that little piece of rubber, was the only thing stoping my 4x4 from working
so it saved me .99cents lol, as he cut me a small piece and gave it to me
long story long, i got it fixed by simply replacing that piece of broken plastic. in no time at all. thanks to this post!!! thank you so much.
now....i have a new problem tho. to start i dont think the 4x4 has been used in years on this thing , so it may be a case on needing grease.
after the 4x4 engages perfectly , while in neutral and holding the push button 4x4 till the light shows up on the dash. i feel it working , but... when i turn right or left, there is a huge clunk noise that comes from the front left side, arrrg
and since my knowledge in mechanics is limited , i thought i might ask the pros here, where i should start.
there are a few posts on clunking, but none that ive found really specific to this senario.
any help would be great, and thanks again to the poster, you rule!! i have 4x4!!!! considering i only paid 500$ for the ride, im one happy 4x4er
