2wd Lo
 
I have an 08 dodge, with on the dash 4wd control. How is it I can disable the front vaccum, in order to back trailers easier?

hmmmm......gonna be hard for a electronic t-case, with a manual it would be easier.....but if you look around you will find a kit im sure.....

Thanks, but it seems its only for up to 2001 Dodges :argh:

if its a manual CAD disconnect then yes it will work on 2001 and older, but 2002 and up didnt have a cad, look into a Free Spin kit from EMS with lockout hubs....

cumminscontrol 07-11-2009 05:03 AM

LOGANSTANFORTH 07-11-2009 06:05 AM

its like 1100 for the EMS kit and you dont ever have to worry about unitized hubs again.....

Your '08 doesn't have a vacuum CAD like the 2nd gens did. All the 2003 and above Dodges have the 9.25 AAM front axles that are constantly driven. When you select 4wd on your truck, whether or not your t-case is electronic or manual, the only thing that happens is the t-case will then drive the front drive-shaft. The front axle is permanently "locked in". The only way to un-lock the front axle is with a "free-spin" kit like the ones offered by EMS Off Road, Solid Axle or Dynatrac. All these kits replace the lame, non-serviceable unit-bearing hubs with Dana 60 style spindles and manual lockout hubs. They also feature 35-spline outer shafts and serviceable Timken wheel bearings that you can get at any auto parts shop. The kits are expensive, some upwards of $2000.00, but the returns are 2wd-lo, greatly reduced front drive-train wear, less drive-train vibration, better steering "feel" and improved fuel economy.:U:
