Ford F150 4x4 Engagement Problems

Is that tie rod mounted upside down

😅 good video

Thanks brother just saved me a ton also great to just work on my own truck

Is there a safe way to remove the vacuum Shit off my 2005 f150 ? It’s got the 4.6

Awesome video you sir get a follow for an amazing informational video

One thing Rick
what is the name of the Company that makes the kit for live axle
Because I never see him advertise

Question so the front wheels have to turn solid like the back wheels?
Or had less torque?

Is there special caps to use to block the vacuum lines that are now no longer used?

Out of all the videos I have watch this is my absolute favorite!!!!! Love this Guy!!!!!

Great video! definitely going to do this to my f150! Thank you!

Wow, so no big advantage to lockout hub?

So by doing the replacement it keeps axles live but not in 4x4 until switch is activated in cab correct?

I need a set of those. I have 04 with 0 miles of 4 wheel drive on it. Vacuum lines got water in them and screwed up the iwe's.

So will that bypass kill your mpg

Rick, by temporarily fixing the problem with plugging up the IWE line, wouldn’t that keep the truck engaged in 4wd?

My 2005 ford will not go in 4x4 L.. was not the wheel actuator,,was the trans switch..

Excellent video my man! My vacuum solenoid on the passenger side firewall is not receiving a signal to apply vacuum to engage/disengage 4wd. What makes the solenoid switch over? I have a lever on the floor for transfer case> Thank you Bro!!

К сожалению иногда перевод не точный , но я знаю что ты настоящий мужик и у тебя золотые руки.

Very informative. Thank you for that. One question: You mention using a grease on the new IWE prior to installation; any particular grease? Lithium? Moly? etc There are alot of greases out there and knowing Ford it's probably something specific or does the Dorman part come with a pack of grease? And I assume you just grease all the splines? Thanks.

I've run the eliminators on my 05 F150 for a number of years now without any issues.

Thanks rick

So, do they allow "Bork Garage" language in the shop at the Ford dealership?

Good video on how to, but this is the 2nd time I've seen you use Chrome sockets on the impact gun! You need a set of impact sockets pal

Make yourself a polish phone holder. Glue a piece of flat steel on the back of your phone and stick it to a magnet

Stupid vacuum operated 4x4 - I have done that repair on many of my trucks! Bad idea Ford

Just had to fix the hubs on my f-250 finally have 4x4 after 4 years

Thanks for sharing Rick ! Didn't know they used vacuum for the lock outs all my shit is old. Thanks for the shout out ! Have to make sure we get your tripod back home on the first!!🤔🤣😂👍🍻🍻

I use the PFT torque spec pretty fucking tight

The wife's explorer has the same ting i think hahahah

So is this something I get to look forward to on my 13 or did Ford wise up and get away from that set up?.....Fuck!!!!,.....I guess you answered that question, that’s what I get for not watching to the end before commenting 🤦🏼‍♂️

Wow, what a shit ass design! Fucking Fords

Rick did you give the new IWE a shot of grease before putting on the wheel?

Cumming all over the place that’s what she said lol great job buddy

Yep

I fell off the podium tonight!! Hope all is well.

So we can learn some good stuff on your channel just like squatches

Haha, I recognize that truck!! Good job Rick!!

Good evening rick
