    Update. So I went back and forth with ordering the 4hi switch or ordering a whole new actuator. I ended up getting the actuator with the thought that I would try swapping the switch first and if that didn't work, then I would just change the whole actuator out. I first removed and tested the old switch. It worked. But compared to the switch in the new actuator, it had way more "play" in when it would "make" or "break" continuity. So, I put the new switch in the old actuator to see what would happen. Greased everything up, anti seized everything and went on the road. Lo and behold it worked. Did a good 3-4 mile loop, going in and out of 4hi at varying speeds with no problems. Hopefully this is the end of this issue. Appreciate everyone's responses and help with this.
