North Alabama Mod Meet

Shoot for Huntsville Alabama That day between 8am and dark and you can meet most of us.. If you want to stop by just shoot Me or TacoAlaMode a PM and we'll give you my number or his directions...

 

I'd like to go if i can get my 4Wheel drive working again by then! Damn i hate my 1 wheel wonder! I need a locking rear something awful!

 

I'm only 2WD with the Rear Diff. and I should do decent.

 

Is this a working meet or a riding meet?

 

I am only 1 wheel drive right now... I found out real quick this past weekend that i was due to the fact that i couldn't get up my parent icey driveway and my dads limited slip GMC did! DAMN I WAS PISSED and ashamed (however you spell it!)!

 

Working/ gonna ride somewhere (most likely not offroad) and take pics meet! Maybe ride to a place to grab dinner before everyone departs!

 

aw shit. hah that sucks, man. I'd try gettin that fixed real quick.

 

The Toyota place thinks its a circuit board problem where water or condensation might have gotten on it and is messing up the voltage. I went wheeling in some water when we had the last big rain before the snow and it was up to my hood on my truck. If it's not that then it is my Actuator (That is what i have gathered from TW).

 

cool just wondering so if i'm able to make it I would know what to was going on.

 

Thats it man! It's always fun and this is the first meet ever for North Alabama! It's gonna be great! Bring something to do if not then i'll find something for your truck!

 

kyle. when u put your truck in 4wd what happens?

 

ok i hate to do this but im doin it anyway. has everyone seen the new poll up for the next allpro group buy? if you wouldnt mind too much how bout taking a look at it, if you arent interested in purchasing any of it would you please vote for the rock sliders to help them win???? i know this is cheating but it would be great if they would group buy them so i could go ahead and get them and still make tuition. anyways i know this is kinda weak to ask of but hey its worth a shot.

 

Nothing.. LOL!! My 4wd light is constantly flashing! Thats all... I can here my 4wd want to engage as in like the electrical stuff making noises but it will not engage..

 

Turn the truck off leave the ignition on. And try to engage or disengage the 4wd.

 

Okie dokie.. When i get off work and i'll let you guys know how it goes.. (45mins.. check back.)

 

45 min is up. lol.. or another thing switch to 4wd in or out with the truck off. then leave the ignition on but dont start the truck. see if you hear the actuator anything.

 

Its way up i know.. I was too tired last night after work to post up a long story! So here we go now!

So last night i got in my truck started it and the light was still blinking.. i turned the truck off then turned the ignition on (not starting it) i flipped the switch and nothing happened. All i could hear was some electronic solonoid sounds like clicking noises but no mechanism sounds.

So i got to wondering.. i turn the truck to Acc flipped the switch to 4wd and TA DA!! we have 4wd! IT WORKED! so then i started the truck to make sure it was in 4wd.. it was so then i flipped it to 4w lo IT WORKED!! Took it out of 4w lo. IT WORKED! went to take it out of 4wd all together while running.. NOPE!! So i turned it off left it out of 4wd and turned the ignition back on and BAM it came out!

Strated it to double check! Yep! then all of a sudden BOTH the 4wd and 4w Lo lights were flashing at the same time! but it was in 2wd! So i tried the previous trick again NOPE! Didn't work nothing did! So i decided to go down the road and dealwith it tomorrow well then i heard that same clicking sound of a solonoid working again and it never engaged again but the 4w Lo light went off and the 4wd light kept blinking.

So now we're back to the first problem! So now what? $350 on a new one? Go to a Junkyard and get one? or Pull this one off and see what is wrong with it?

 

I say you might as well pull it just to see what it looks like first. You could have some moisture stuck in there or something. That it worked the one time says that it is at least checking a little more in to it.

Try the experiment again tonight when you get off. Interesting info to know to try it with the truck off if you are out in the middle of BFE.

 

Yep yep!!

I might make an actual post about it if i get it resolved!

BTW! You need to go ahead and start PMing your address to people and also would you rather us all show up at once or first come first serve as we trickle in.. I mentioned to everyone that we are starting up at 8.. so i'll close the poll tonight and get this thing settled in!
