HI, I HAVE A 91' MAZDA NAVAJO I TOOK OFF THE FRONT INDEPENDENT SUSPENSION AND PUT ON AN 89' JEEP STRAIGHT AXLE HOW DO I HOOK UP THE VACUUM TO LOCK THE 4X4 HUBS? OR WHAT WOULD BE THE BEST WAY TO GO ABOUT ENGAGING THE 4X SHOULD I KEEP THEM LOCKED FULL TIME AND IF SO HOW DO I LOCK THEM MANUALLY IT HAS A VACUUM/DIAPHRAM?:exp:

Is your caps lock key broken? Just an FYI- All capital letters means you are YELLING!

As for the answer to your question, get the axle shafts out of a '97-'06 Wrangler (they have stronger u-joints) or find a one piece inner shaft from a Chrocar and swap out the 2 piece shaft. Throw the vacuum accuator in the trash and build a plate to cover the hole where it once was.
