sounds like your hubs are not engaging - are they manual or auto? if auto, it could be any of several things - some are vacuum operated, some are electric; check relays, fuses, wiring, etc.

Thanks it is auto. There is a fitting on the front axle differntial that has two wires going to it. There is some dammage to the wires but they don't seem to be broken. I can't tell how the fitting is removed from the differntial if that is the problem.

You probably already know this, try putting the tuck in neutral when you push the 4 low button. You can't be moving when you do it.

2000 4x4 blinking and not working, its not the switch by jasdav1

I have a 2000 chevrolet 1500 with the 5.3. It has the autotrac with pushbutton on the dash. Now for my problem, When I press the 4hi, Auto 4, or 4 low , the lights just blink and it will not go into 4 wheel drive. When I push 2hi the light comes right on. It will shift the transfer case into lo when I push the 4 lo button, but the front wheels do not engage and the light just blinks. I have replaced the switch and checked the ATC fuse and the 4x4 fuse. Any suggestions?

Height of 2005 Z-71 by siregor

I recently purchased a used 2005 Z-71. It has after market wheels and tires. The tires are 285/70-17. This truck is about 2" higher off the ground than most other trucks of similar vintage. I compared the original tires (265/70-17) diameter to the 285's and found that there is only about 1" difference. This would result in the vehicle being only 1/2" higher. Any thoughts as to why the difference in height?
 
Thanks

typically there are a number of components that may go bad.
1. selector switch, located inside the cab
2. differential actuator, located on the frt. diff
3. encoder motor, located on the transfer case
4. in your case vacuum module, location ?

consider this.... go to the dealer parts department ask them to pull up the parts on the comlputer part directory they think could be bad for that year 94. if they don't respond favorably ask if they could print out the exploded view of the part i have listed in the prior message. check them out one by one
