Hi All,
I have a 2000 Chevy blazer LS. Recently, I was diagnosing why my 4-wheel drive was 'stuck', and while investigating, I messed up the torsion clip that holds the cable to the 4-wheel drive actuator, located under the battery plate, in front of the passenger front tire. I see new actuators for sale, but all of them seem to be missing the internal spring release mechanism (my actuator is still good; it's the torsion spring that's messed up). I tried to jimmy-rig (sorry to anyone reading this named Jimmy) something but it didn't work.

Anyone have ideas on how I can get an actuator torsion spring, or know of anywhere after-market that I could purchase such a thing?

Thanks in advance,

Frank

If you want the actual spring, you might have to go to a wrecking yard.
