selector has been moved alot
« on: February 20, 2011, 05:53:17 AM »
Over the years my select drive has been switched back and forth. Other drivers didn't know ther was a problem with my actuator. What are other issues now and can I take apart the rear actuator for a rebuild(seals,gasket)?

As far as I know there are no rebuild kit for the actuator.
The actuator for the "Shift on the Fly" version is still available:

This means that you will need to lock the front (CV=shaft) actuator in locked position.

thank you, please explain if you mean manually or just using the air switch which I think the front one is fine.
