Just want to say whats up. I have been surfing the forum for awhile...... and there is some GREAT stuff on here. LOTS of ideas rolling around in my head.... IF I CAN JUST GET MY 4WD WORKING!!! Anyway I just picked up a super clean 1994 ranger XLT 4.0 5 speed without a SPOT of rust on the body, and I know the green blue green paint is not the best color but I am thinking it will turn red this winter!!!!

 

Welcome!

MY 94

 

Welcome to RF

 

So I have been surfing all the threads about the 4wd problems... my is a lil different. Last night I got the switch on the dash for my truck, the old one was bad. The switch worked 4wd work so I went out to a local gravel pit and did a couple of reverse crawls to "test" the 4wd. Well I got up the one in my picture above the tried another one..... i couldn't get up it at first so i gave her the beans a lil bit and I saw out of my passenger side either smoke or dust could tell... but that is not alarmed me.. IT WAS THE SMELL.. smelled like one of two things electrical burning or cluthch.... so i drive up 10 feet hit the button---back in 2wd-- now it wont go back in??? the button is still making the modual under the jump seat click and the function check on the modual passed.... any ideas... i was thinking about just picking up a new motor and seeing if that fixes it.
