    A bunch a cool stickers, a bada ass MetalMiller Tx Longhorns grill emblem painted Hemi Orange, JBA long tube headers with o2 sims, Diff breather mod, Red LED interior lights, Fancy head unit that plays ipod n movies, Also DIY install factory stuff like, factory cruise control, factory intermittent wipers, OME nitro struts with 886x springs and toy tec top plate, JBA high caster UCA's for better alignmnet and dey beefier too, Old Man Emu Dakar leaf springs in da rear with the gear, U bolt flipper, Ivan Stewart TRD rims with 33" K Bro 2's, some bad ass weather tech floor liners so I don't muck up my interior, an ATO shackle flipper for mo travel in da rear wit the gear, also super shiny Fox 2.0 shocks back there too, all sorts of steal armor for bouncing off of the rocks like demello sliders, AP front skid, trans skid, n transfer skid, demello gas tank skid, and a tough as nails ARB bumper with warn 8k winch, I'm sure there's more
    Many things could be going on. Start with checking all the electrical connections and vacuum hoses on the front diff and transfer case. Unplug and plug back in electrical connections til they snap back in place, and check vacuum hoses that they are in fact connected and they are not rotten. Once you have done this, drive on a nice strait road at about 25-45 mph and engage 4hi. If it doesn't engage right away, try slowing down about 5mph by just letting off the gas, then speed up some. If this doesn't fix your problem, then you have a slightly deeper issue, and we can go from there.
