thanx so you reken i shud jus get manual hubs to solve this problem

[GotFlex]

yes but your driveshaft will still spin, my mates is like that at the moment too, he has the little dog gear out of the transfer so only 2wd, we just gota wire in the module thing as his is electric

[hiace007]

yea i compared with a surf today it is electric not vacum his has a button on the 4wd stick jus pres it with out moving the 4wd gear stick and it locks the front got my box from wrecker with out loom or the button on the gearstick does any one in wellington know how to wire this up

I run one of these boxes and they have an electric Worm drive motor on the back of the transfer case so is probably locked in.

Normally they are operated by an electric knob on the gear lever which winds them in and out. The motor quite often gives trouble and can get stuck in 4 wheel drive.

I have converted mine to air operated. Others fit a manual lever or else you need to get the wiring sorted to make it work properly.

They are a bloody good box

the lever sounds like the go but what was involved with the air operated one
