Default Uh Oh

So I'm having what I'm hoping is a minor problem with the 4x4 on my ride. I had to use 4x4 the other day while out hunting and now whenever I shut my truck off it re-engages part way. I can hear the hum of the front diff. Then if I slow down to approx 5 mp/h and engage and disengage 4 hi the hum from the front diff goes away. I've had the front left wheel bearing replaced and the right side cv axle replaced. So I'm thinking (and hoping) it's a vacuum leak? Any help would be much appreciated

sounds like a vacuum leak.. but where..go to your local auto parts that lends tools. advance or auto zone and barrow a vacuum pump for troubleshooting.. disconnect the bigger of the 2 lines connected to you IWE and connect the pump to the IWE ..pump it up to 15 psi or so and see if it holds.. do both sides...
