95 3.4l V6 4×4 ISSUE

Also is there an easy way I can get the vacuum actuator out? Lol

 

4 bolts hold the actuator in place, pull those and you will have access to the slide gear inside.

 

J pattern t-case, manual hub, and a vacuum actuated 4wd clamshell.

That explains why you don't have power to your passenger side.

 

So basically eventually getting a non add tube , and trying to see if I can get the fork back to the left side for now is the best bet? (if that is the case when I get it opened up.)

 

You mean someone used an ADD diff tube (with actuator still on it) with his manual hub setup?

J shift has nothing to do with it though since it is used for both ADD and manual hub trucks

 

J pattern have nothing to do with but the combo does. To have a J pattern case, manual hub, and ADD tube? Haven't seen that combo from factory except for 01-04 with j pattern and ADD minus the manual hub

 

Just do it the correct way and buy a non-add tube. Read one two many story about issue with hose clamp mod.

 

ADD tube was never a combo with manual hubs, and manual hubs were no longer available after 2000

ADD was simply vacuum if 1995.5 to 2000, and electric if 2001 and up

J shift available all years, and available with ADD or manual hub

Push button available only with ADD

That's what happens when you got 40s n tons

 

He's gonna pay a pretty penny, think I sold mine for $200 like 3-4 years ago

 

Yes. But OP have that. So either someone swap the push button to J and swap manual hub or came with j case and ADD then someone swap to manual hub.

Like I said, the combo is not orginal.

 

Or blow his clamshell. Read a while back that the clamp broken and pieces got lodge in the carrier being, toasting the clamshell. So yea, I rather pay a pretty penny to get it fix correct vs a bandage.

 

Ahh I read wrong, thought you said you saw his hermaphrodite setup as factory lol

I never understood not checking everything when buying a vehicle, blows my mind

 

Just $500 after tax... Ebay price is dumb

Looks like this guy may have a manual diff tube available.

 

Also OP, if you actually need to get that vacuum actuator out of the vehicle, I recently discovered you can do so by just removing the sway bar, unbolting the trans from the trans mount and jacking up the trans slightly (from under the transfer case).

This will leave enough of a gap to fenagle it out between the bottom of the bell housing and the passenger side steering rack below.

 

So I just got a weird setup

 

Ok I'll go searching for an add tube, and thanks for the tip @Red_Squirrel

 

No

Manual hub tube, not ADD

 

Yeah you did a thorough explanation of everything, not sure why he would want the very same tube he already has
