Ya know,,, all I can think when I see thumbs down on great explicit videos like this is,, that there are people who are so miserable in their own lives that they just have nothing better to do then just go video to video thumbing them down without even watching them! This was the best how it's done video start to finish I seen so far! Thank you so much! I seen how the plug lines went on correctly ( since mine were played with and coulda went either way) before you taken it apart all the way to where exactly the vent gets attached behind the coil spriing! Great video! Helped me immensely! Thank you for posting this!

That I haven't seen in many post and forums this is a very good informative video very detailed so great job on that but also zit pops on control the light is coming on but it's not actually going into four-wheel this is going to be my next thing is doing a pressure test to see that if it is holding a vacuum if it isn't then we know that that's a bad diaphragm and I'm going to replace it thank you

great video.. very well done. I was told that if the front driveshaft/axle wasn't engaged that the truck would roll if it was in park. if one front axle is split by this collar how could that be true? it also seems that the opposite side axle would be working the differential to death in two wheel drive. What am I missing here? Is the transfer case constantly in 4wd to keep this from happening?

My light stays on in 2wheel drive, in 4x4 it turns off. Does this mean my 4x4 is stuck and engaged? One time the light went off on 2H and also stayed off on 4H. I tried changing the sensor.

Great video. My lever on my 99 Dodge Ram1500 is difficult to move from 2H to 4H, N and 4L but after toggling the lever a bit, it does move to 4H and I see the light on the instrument panel. I got this truck a month ago and truck works great overall but I want to figure out how to make it easier to move the lever. I am not sure if related to the vacuum actuator or shifter assembly needs some WD40 so shifter moves easier like yours in the video? Any ideas? Thanks.

Thank you for this video,my truck is stuck in 4 wheel drive,can the actuator cause this problem ? The truck went into 4 wheel drive but it won't shift back out .

If the vacuum diaphragm is leaking then it may not be able to shift out of 4WD. You can try jacking the front end off the ground. Remove the actuator sensor and there is a rod in the actuator that pushes against the sensor. Push on the rod to slide it out of 4WD. You might have to "rock" the passenger tire back and forth while pushing the rod. The engine should be OFF. Be sure the vehicle is safely supported.

Currently doing this on my first gen. I can not for the life of me get the new diaphragm installed without destroying the part or myself. The original diaphragm had to be hammered out. Anyone have any tips?

No, just make sure when you put it together that the "yoke" goes over the collar. (once you have it apart you should be able to slide the collar in and out of 4 wheel drive by hand)
