I removed my front drive shaft on my 2006 PF due to vibration issues and have been driving around with the switch in 2wd. I was looking at some other forums regarding Titans and one guy said that there is an oil pump/motor? in the transfer case and that if you plan on driving without the front drive...

Iâ€™ve gone through this the past year with my PF. I replaced springs as one was broke and had a lot of â€œtailwagâ€ at highway speeds. Also replace sway bar links, make sure these are tight as one time the bolt was loose and you feel the difference in ride. New Monroe shocks which I chucked after 8...

I had similiar issues that you describe. Trust me, Save yourself alot of time and pull the front drive shaft out, then drive it at highway speed. I did that and vibration hum noise gone. My plan is to get my front shaft balanced and check u joints at driveline shop. There sometimes is a faint resona...

Well I didnâ€™t scan anything but had to take it into a shop and they had to use heat to remove the front drive shaft. I told them Iâ€™m trouble shooting a highway speedvibration. So then I took it on the freeway and Viola! No more vibrations! There is still a resonance sound from the front diff but...

Iâ€™ve had the same issue with hum noise and high frequency vibration at 60mph and Iâ€™ve rotated tires, balanced, alignment, changed u joints, and itâ€™s being narrowed down to either the front differential issues or front propellor shaft. I noticed that if I jack up the front end and lay in the fl...

I turned the switch from 2WD to AUTO, then back to 2WD and the 4WD light on the dash went out so I'm assuming a "code" is stored in the computer which I'll get a shop to scan when I decide to swap out the front diff as money is tight these days. Based on the color and sludge from the front...

So I was out tonight and the 4WD light on the dash is on and seem to stay on after I went to two different stores and turned off/started the PF. I'll try and go somewhere and get it scanned with a 4WD scanner for a code, something I don't have, maybe one of the local autoparts store or 4WD shop migh...

I've been using IMGUR, it's free after photobucket collapsed.

I followed your instructions and I assume that the LOCK position is 4wd high so when you mentioned to go to LOCK this is the switch position I used so for line 11, I went from 4wd to auto to 4wd. Line 7 - yes the light stayed on. No I don't have a high tech scan tool, just a simple code reader. I re...

Thanks to tootall and smj for your replies. PF has rotary switch on dash from 2wd to auto to 4wd to 4lo. In winter I drive in auto unless snow covered roads trail then 4wd. In summer 2wd. I did note that.... When I picked of up my 4wd light was on but this has happened before. All that I did was sto...

I did drain the front diff fluid, it was 75-90 synthetic that I replaced 8 months ago after buying this PF. I really dont' understand what could be vibrating/humming in there at highway speed but maybe someone with experience could chime in.Thanks...here are some pics. Just pulled plug, has some mud...

I purchased a used 2006 PF about a year ago and replaced alot of worn out parts such as shocks, springs, rear LCA's, spring buckets, rear Bilstein, airlift bags, tie rod ends, belt tensioner, new fan belt, front monroe quickstruts, new sway bar links and rubber bushings, upgraded to 17" 265/65/...

i have the same issue at stop lights. RPM does not change, when put in neutral or park it goes away and runs smooth. I've watch the engine with someone else revving engine in drive/reverse and there is alot of movement. Thinking of changing motor mounts as I think this will eliminate a bit of the sh...
