That sucks, I didn't think it would throw a code because I unplugged the vacuum disconnect pig tail under the hood so that the axle never disengages except when off and has never thrown a code. You may want to try unplugging that also to see if it makes a difference.

Your talking about the plug jammed up under the front clip/in front of the OHV's airbox right? I did, and plugged the vacuum reserve with a piece of tube and a BB. Still blinking 4x4 lights... ERRRGGHHH!!!!
 






Yea....make sure you unplugged the right one since there are two there.

I unplugged the harness on the left, as well as the two on the right, and vacuum tubes. I took the whole front Diff harness out. Was that correct?
 






I only have the right side (closest to the fender) disconnected. I just went out and looked. I was doing this for testing purposes.

I'll look into that, I may have left one in... I'm not %100 positive.

EDIT- nvm, found the entire harness sitting in my basement.

From what I can tell, you left all the vacuum lines hooked up? What did you do with the Diff plug on the other end of the pig tail? The new front diff I got does not have a connection for them.. So I just assumed unplug the whole thing like it was never there :/

I'm going to try your setup, minus the vacuum tubes tomorrow when the sky stops falling.
 






Yes, I left everything in place and just unplugged the right side as you see there, and have no come up with any codes for 4wd issues.

New Mod today, 10/9/10

I made a low profile light bar, I call it 'The Lowe's Special'
(CREDIT TO MUSTANGANDY & THE "$10 Light bar")

- 4ft. of 1in. EMT conduit
- 2 1in furniture caps
- 2 5/8 Nylon spacers
- 4 rubber hose washers
- 2 bolts found in my basement

^^ LOL! :lol:

But I did mount 2 pairs of Hella FF75's on it to make it more legit. 2 outsides are fog, the 2 inside ones are driving.

Those 33 12.50s are scrum-didilly-yum-sheous!
 












Haven't updated in a long time, thought I'd do so with some videos!

This is how it looked stock;
(You'd do me a HUGE favor if you watched the first 10 seconds of this video and clicked the add at the bottom of it!!!)



First Start Up, BORING!;



How it sounds now;



Another dumb one.. pulling 1/3 of a tree;

 






Good looking Ex. Love the stance on it and the wheels.
 






You have definitely inspired me with this build. I may have taken quite a few ideas from you ;)
