    I hit my front end (behind front tires) and my four wheel drive isnt working. Its not the t-case or driveshaft. I know its probably electrical. Can anyone give me any thoughts?

    There are two solenoids that engadge the hubs on toyot a pickups. These are Vacuum actuated via the electrical system. Coming off the drivers side of the engine from the manifold is the vacuum line. Look there first!!
