went to put it in 4 wheel high to move it around the shop and nothing would not go into gear. when looking at the t case we could see it slipping in but not turning the front drive shaft. got to love it.. so we lost it and has to be rebuilt or replaces... and will cost about the same to rebuilt as to replace.

ok so here is the update on the build:
transfer case is fine it is the vacuum that is bad, the egg has a whole in it so that is what is causing the 4wheel high not to work, posie lock will fix that. the break lines are on upside down, the upper and lower control arm bushing are shot, the steering stabliser is gone, the front sway bar bushing are being replaced, and few other little things. and to kick it all off the new drive shaft is 3" to short. so they are having to get me a new one. will be in on monday, so another fast trip up north to put all this up and to swap out drive shafts and the bad wheel.

oh what fun. still have yet to drive the jeep since the lift was put on..lol
