If it is 4x4, you have to replace the whole hub
well if you dont see it then i highly doubt you even have 4x4 its right in front of your face on the dash on the right side of the steering wheel above your headunit
place car in neutral , then bring lever down to 4hi position , then put car in drive.
The Owners Manual sez to be in Neutral when changing from one mode to the other.
How do you change a 1998 jimmy 4X4 front wheel bearing ?
you read the directions!HAHA!
To engage the 4x4 manually (VTM-4), you would need to be in 1st, 2nd, or reverse gear. In those gears and while stopped, you can then press the VTM-4 button, and will engage 4x4. It will only be engaged when around 18mph or lower. Above that, and it will disengage. It will re-engage when it dips down to that speed again. To turn it off, you can just press the button, or shift to a higher gear Keep in mind that even with the button off, VTM-4 will engage occasionally when there's slippage.
That would be the 4L60E transmission.
Are you in neutral ? No in reverse.
