I just had a 6" fabtech kit installed on my 06 superCrew and during the install they noticed my hub bearings were shot so they were replaced. After the install my 4 wheel drive still wont engage in the front left wheel. now they are saying that the seals are broken in the hub so that will be getting fixed. I was just wondering if there is anything that needs to be done in conjunction with this kit to ensure proper 4 wheel drive function. I've read a bunch on here and it doesn't seem that many others have had problems with this kit.

Any advice will help

 

MY 4 WHEEL DRIVE SUCKS it gose out and dosent work half the time, and that half of the time when i need it im stuck..... whats the point of a 4x4 if it dosnt work

 

You know, I've noticed something strange with my 4wd in my 08. When I engage 4Hi on the fly the light comes on and it seems to be hooking up fine However when I get on it hard, sometimes I hear a bang. Its almost like one wheel didnt engage and it finally caught up. Is that even possible? This has only happened 3 times. I only used 4wd a few times prior to the lift. So I dont know if this was a problem before. I only have 1400 miles on my truck and Im not wondering if the lift has something to do with this??? Ive never had automatic hubs or a computer to engage my 4wd, so maybe this is normal???

 

u need a new hub actuator.

 

Damn, that didnt take long to crap out on me if thats the problem...

 

would the actuater take care of my problem too?

 

It could also be the IWE Solenoid.

 

hey pilot nice ride

 

true but his is a new 08 still under warranty might as well change them too.

 

My truck did the same thing, not engaging sometimes and the dealer just (Tuesday) replaced the "solenoid" and all is well.

 

hey pilot do those 37s rub at all?

 

Only sometimes. During a climbing turn or a turn over a bump I rub the inside wheel on the back of the well. I have trimmed quite a bit, but it still rubs on ocasion. If I drive it nice, there usually is no worries.
