4wd shift shoes on fork anybody ever?
Ok its a freaking snow storm and my 4wd of course is not working correctly. looks like the little plastic shoes on the shift actuator fork are gone. anybody have any ideas on what i can use in a pinch to replace. looks like the shift fork is riding over the collar without those shoes. i was thinking a piece of small hole with a zip tie on it. any other ideas

well since we dont know what year or model truck you have we dont know how to help you. plus the only info you gave is the 4wd shift fork. there are 2 forks, one in the t-case and one in the front axle for the cad unit.
i dont have 4x4 period. my front drive shaft is not in due to a bad pinion yoke.
heres a simple solution, go to your local city barn and put 600-700 pounds of sand/salt mix in the bed of your truck. thats what i did and ill be plowing in 2wd all day tomorrow!

I have a 96 1500 I'm talking about the shift fork on the front axle. Looking for a quick fix in a pinch. The fork must be worn it rides over the collar. I have the fork locked in one position with a bolt welded in there so its always in 4wd. Cause I have a vacuum leak. But the collar seems to be sliding out. Do you think my piece of hose idea on each side of fork with a zip tie holding it on will work

you should be able to cobble up something.
see if you can manually slide the collar toward the drivers side to engage it, then wrap something around the passenger side axle half to lock the collar into place. maybe a big plastic collar and some zip-ties.
then leave the cad off and just bolt a cover plate over the cad opening. that will keep the fork out of the way.
