hello i have a 2000 blazer 4x4 front diff was locked in 4x4 stucl solid i have a new diff i have unbolted everything pulled cv,s and diff is just hangin there is there something i missed i cant manage to walk it out of spot do i need lift motor or something?

 

disconnecting the steering usually helps. but yeah they suck. the older s10s there was actually a frame bracket i would cut out the way and reweld.

 

The mount near the yoke needs to be pushed up out of the bracket and then maneuvered around the bracket once you have all of the mounting points free from their brackets. It can't come straight down. Removing the steering linkage like abig84 said will help a lot.

 

I GONNA TRY WALK IT OUT AGAIN I GOT READ PART OF RNR FOR IT FROM CHEVY IT SAYS U GIOTTA TURN IT COUNTER CLOCK WISE WHEN U WALK IT OUT DUNNO

 

i dont know if the same applies. but on the fullsize trucks if we were going to over haul the front end we would just unbolt the long tube off the side of the axle. that helps a bit too and takes a little weight off it

 

I tryed walking my front diff out for about 5 minutes and that was all the pateints i had. I just pried that bottom bracket off to the drivers side with a pipe clamp bent it out to a full 90 degree then the front diff dropped out alot easier

 

my 4x4 low and 2 hi buttons are both illuminated how do i get my tranfer case into neutral tried usen buttons nothing works i really need to get this into 2 wheel only i couldnt get the damn front diff out i dont see any point in bending or cutting stuff i wouldnt consider my self a mechanic at all if i gotta start cutting things out of the way so i put it all back together whats the simpliest way to put my tranfer case into neutral or 2 wheeel plz help me out here im lost when it comes to 4 x4 mechanicing no experience and its a bunch of bs

 

3 or 4 button transfer case? 3 buttons don't have a neutral position, 4 buttons you hold 2 hi and 4 low for 10 seconds or something like that.


What mode is the transfer case actually in? Maybe the light issue is because the front diff is stuck?


You could try disconnecting the actuator under the battery tray and manually disengage the front diff.
