ok like iv said before my 4x4 does not seem to work. and if i shift it into 4x4 my rear will lock and drop into the rear but my front still dont turn!! now mine is an 86 and im missing the vac lines and stuff, but that does not make the 4x4 work thats only to slide the fork over and lock the two shafts. my front should still spin! i jacked her um and say that my front driveshaft does not spin and my shift linkage seems to be ok so im thinking that maby my front axel broke?? its a D30 but when i do drive it down the street(in 2wd or with 4x4 engaded) the front axel does not make any noice or any wierd sounds. so im confused how can i tell if its broken please having a jeep with no 4x4 sucks

 

Seriously do you want help in this thread or not?

 

better get those vacuum lines replaced.

 

no buddy... your fronts not gonna start pulling until the fork is over... i did the cable conversion on mine when my vaccum lines pooped... suggest the same... no more problems!

 

you have a vac disco dana 30... with no lines hooked up?

found your problem

 

your front driveshaft should still spin if you have all 4 tires off the ground yes... but your axle will not turn at all until the fork is over...

 

ohh ok im thinking of locking the fork in place,with either with a hose clam or something. does anybody have a pic with it done?

 

dude... please do not do that... not a good idea... then i wont ride on the road for crap and youll brake something... do the cable conversion... 30min and i got my cable froma 97 chevy pickups hood release... real easy... seach it up... theres postings all over the web on how to do this...

 

ok ill try the cable way

thanks

 

ok, im proud to say MY 4X4 WORKS!!!!!! haha i did a home-made cable system and it actually works! im soo happy now it just needs to rain in moreno valley :]

 

carry a long shaft to the trail swap it out takes 15 min or less
