I've searched all the topics on this and we all agree that the auto hubs suck but I haven't needed the 4x4 until today when it started snowing. I'm going to buy Warn's but I need to get to work to make enough money to do so. I know mine don't work so I put her up on stands and threw it into 4x4. The front axle spins on both shafts which is spinning the spindle (therefore, not the electric switch or the diff). I have cleaned the hubs and the teeth look fine (they lock when I pull the middle piece out enough to engage the teeth):
The spring pushes in with a good amount of force but I can't find a tool to push in the spring while all the parts are in.
Am I missing a piece in the hub?
Could it be that the cams are worn?
Or is there something broken on the axle/spindle side I might be missing (I have taken it apart also). The spindle is blurry because it is spinning:
Are the cams supposed to move when the 4x4 button is pushed?
