your hubs have two settings, auto and lock. and if its not working you have a vacuum line thats not hooked up or a relay. -

i'll have to try that and see what happens..... i suspect a relay is bad as the lights on the dash don't come on at all for 4x4 -

cool cause i looked in the fuse box and the numbers stop at 37 under the hood and the 4x4 relay is number 41 i think...

hopefully i'll get back in town with enough time to put it on a MODIS and buzz test each injector and see if i can find a bad one..... -

Welcome to the PSD family Ben!!! Sorry I haven't been around much, been busy as hell!

I'd give Tony a call for nearly anything you need! Also, see if he can get you some Swamps injectors.. a buddy of mine has them and loves them -- they are 170/(can't remember - 30 or 40 I think) single shots.. your stock injectors are split shots and put more of a load on the stock hpop.

if you get injectors that are too large, the hpop will not be able to keep up no matter what shot your injectors are...

hope this little bit of info helps!

and if you have any ?'s about the Swamps injectors, PM White Buffalo (Rich) on the heartland, he can fill you in... I'll be seeing him this comming weekend (Nov 1st) @ Thunder Valley Raceway in Noble, Oklahoma. -

i bought AD replacement injectors as mine had AB's in it. after finding a boost leak and a HUGE exhaust leak it runs like a stocker now. so now it is time to bomb. -

Intake and Exhaust and Guages - then Chip...

after that you'll likely need a transmission... , or to at least upgrade the existing one

then i'd spring for some injectors and a small turbo upgrade.. (if you have forged rods, then you can go farther, if not, you are pretty limited with PMR rods to 400 HP or less) -
