IWE solenoid...Go get a new one and swap it asap before the hubs are torn up!

IWE solenoid? I know that there are many writeups on it. Not trying to be a jerk, but the search function should really help you out on that.
Sorry to hear about your woes..

BTW, that's a mighty long sentence you wrote there.

abgarza

Found this. Hope it helps.

Also, Check your lines to make sure they are clear.. otherwise your new IWE will go bad very quickly.

you dont have IWE if you have a 2wd, im gonna say its the wheel bearing if you have 2wd.

abgarza

I thought he was trying to say his 4 wheel drive is fried or inoperable, hence, he will have to be a 4x2

bigdreynolds

It was a 4x4.
As far as the search he was probably like me and didn't know the correct word for it. That's why I bumped it.
Glad you guys could help him out.

He was being sarcastic about the 2wd if he couldn't get the IWE fixed before it screwed his hubs... Look over by his avatar...
