I don't think thats something I can do as the step by step doesn't really do it for me. Howie, can you understand what that thread is talking about specifically? I follow most of it but some is vague. For $30 and a weekend I can manage to do it but I'd need some better instructions lol. Thanks in advance!

That's the thing the actuator is not moving at all when I turn my switch and the 4x4 light comes on but won't go off when I turn it back to 2wd but there's suction on both Lines
