Please be more descriptive about what is happening. Barely making it into 4wd is incorrect. It's like a switch either you are in 4wd or not. Do you put your truck in N before making the switch to 4lo?

thanks, i was unsure if the diff was live all the time... or if it has a vacuum pod on the long axle !There is also a switch on the AAD vacuum actuator on the front diff - check your vacuum lines and connections there too, as well as the connections at the t-case actuator. Sounds like you're probably on the right track though if it won't shift to 4 lo with the clutch pedal firmly floored. (and before you move the switch). I suspect when you say it "barely shifts" into 4 Hi, the diff is locking but the t-case is not. And don't forget to check all your fuses if you haven't already. Good luck.

Yes, the 4-lo switch will be on the t-case, I think it's built into the actuator.was thinking about this... where is the switch that activated the 4x4 and 4lo lights? is this one of the switches on the transfer case actuator.. that localize's the problem no ? I think i will assume the front end it working
cheers
