Man am I glad to find this website. Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and Holiday season. Happy New Year to all. Now on to the problem.
It started a week ago, as I was leaving my wife's workplace, the front end felt as if it were binding up and at first I thought I may have a CV joint bad at the RF wheel. I checked it at home and found nothing wrong. Today as I was getting lunch it happened again and I had a fellow mechanic look and listen to what it was doing and it was thought to be a U-joint in the front driveshaft. After work I replaced the front u-joint and dissassembled the CV joint at the other end and repacked it. Seemed ok until halfway home when the 4HI and 4LO lights flashed in unison 6 times and after getting home I found that the 4WD is inoperative. Please help, thanks, DaveWC.
