thank you trogdors4x4 and kingfish51. i did a little researchin but still confused. is the IWE and the actuator the same thing. if so that makes sense. the pop i heard came from the passenger side as did the whining sound. so did the gears strip on the actuator side, not allowing it to engage anymore. if so what all do i need to order to replace it. and is there anyway to test and make sure before i go spendin a pile of money on it? don't think the solenoid is the culperate because it was working right before the POP. unless i lost vaccuum and it slammed it out of 4x4.

More than likely you wont need a hub. They are built stout and it would take alot to ruin that. The actuator looks like its built to give out before the hub for ease of changing and probably the cost as well. Replace your IWE solenoid on the passenger firewall and your actuator first. Trust me its very easy to do. Look in the how to forums for TN-F150's thread about changing it. I followed that and got it done in about an hour. An extra pair of hands really helps as well. If I remember correctly the solenoid from my local ford dealer was $60 and the actuator was about $130. Then to get it installed would of been $500 with parts so I saved myself some change there!

yea i was gettin a little confused with the actuator and hub. thank you for the input, i was trying to find this part on tasca ford but they say they don't have any. my local dealership is higher than a girraffes *** on parts so i was lookin for a place that was a little cheaper. kinda workin on a budget. thanks again for all the help.
