Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) 4x4 Posi-Lok CAD?

[ox1]

Search turned up anything but this brand.



I know I saw it - or maybe even posted it once before when I saw it in 4Wheeler mag. Always wanted to fetch it jist fer the 2low feature that it would afford me, but now I dang near didn't get outta a tight spot that I knew I would need 4wd to git out of.



I think this jist may be the week that I fetch a manual CAD setup.



I have seen posts aboot vacume operated one that gives you 2low - but I think I wunna go full manual - especially when I haven't taken time yet to find why the vacume setup aint workin right now.



Their site.



These guys are almost local - so unless their is something much better or somethin' lemme know...



Has anyone used their setup? The site shows three diff kits fer the same truck. I have the 1 ton. Which doo I want - the $50, $100, or the $200 kit? And why? I couldn't find any description as to what the kits offer diff.



Any semi inteligent info for this or similar kits? Gotta get it fixed quick!

It looks to me like you'll need the $200 #400 kit. The other kits are the perma lok - off road only, and the last one is only a new shift fork.

I hated mine it would not engage or it would pop out. I just made my own perm a lock and welded the collar over. I will sell you mine for cheap if you would like to try it maybe you will have better luck.

Pop out eh?



Would that be b/c there was nothing maintaining pressure or possibly a detent point to hold it at the engagement point?



The vacume setup would always hold it over eh?



Ever any trouble with it magrating the other way then?



Anyone else have any experience?



What to do? What to do?

Never had a problem before I installed it. The cable is whats holds the pressure on it. No it never tried to engage by it self. The one thing I will say is they say a worn shift fork could cause it to do that but I never changed mine. I just got tired of messing with it and welded it. I could send it to you and you can try it. If it works you send me $75 if it don't you throw it in the garbage and your out the shipping.

Mine also pops out from time to time but I'll replace the sift fork before I say it's junk. Other than that, it works pretty good. I believe I saw a picture off BBD's interior with a Posi-Lok nob under the dash. If it will hold for him, it oughta hold for me too.
