4x4 problems

I have a 2008 F150 XLT 4x4 and i am having problems with the 4hi. When i go to reverse into a parking spot or just to try and turn around while i'm on the trail it turns for about 3 feet and then locks up and the truck will no longer move. Has anyone had this problem happen to them or know anything that would cause this. Any suggestions would be appreciated. thanks

Go to the 2004-2008 forum and do a search on IWE. You will find a ton of useful stuff to solve your problem. The system isn't perfect, but it's not hard to fix either.
