    Wrecked my Blue Crown Vic.

    My condolences. If I remember you haven't had that too long. I rember that BoS sticker on the side and it made me laugh. Those are tough cars but that could have been way worse. Save the fun bits and take the insurance money and get a new one. What do you think caused the downshift

    explain how i dont have 4wd

    Update: I just lifted the truck off the ground and all four tires spin... kind of. The rears are normal sans locking action The fronts will spin and they have differential action if one side is held. However if they are both held the wheels won't spin and neither will the drive shaft...

    explain how i dont have 4wd

    The front axle is fine, the actuator is fine and the xfer case does high and low. What else is there? I guess I'll start with the switch, as its the only kinda broken thing

    explain how i dont have 4wd

    My 00 silvarado is used to tow, get stuff from home depot, and as a back up for me and my gf. Its a good truck, has a rebuilt trans that shifts smooth and plenty of power, but 4wd won't engage.

    Bypassing PCV

    But jeeps don't have a pcv system, they have a ccv system. There is no valve, just a fresh air in and a metered orifice out. Essentially a restricted draft tube. Its almost identical to the older modified cars with the breather filter, except the filtered air comes from the air box and isn't as...

There are downsides with batteries, but for the most...
