I hope you guys don't mind me posting about my Bronco here but I know there are a few here that have quite a bit of experience with Bronco's. My 96 full size Bronco won't engage 4WD anymore. It's a pushbutton system with manual hubs. When I push the button I hear a click from the vicinity of the glove box and the 4WD light comes on but theres no drive to the front wheels. If I try to put in LOW I hear the transfer case switch but still no front tire spin. Any ideas :?:

I had a problem with my Ranger similar to yours. The system is a 4wheel drive on the fly system, with a little selection knob.
I had excess rust built up where my axle goes into my hub. I have been into the mud my fair share :wink: and alittle bit of dirt and rust stopped it from engaging.
Also check to make sure you don't have a crack in your vaccum line or its pinched off somewhere. Buddy had that problem on his Jeep once... 3 hours stuck off of Nags Head on the beach wasn't too much fun. (running low on beer)
I have worked on older model Bronco's but not the newer OJ Simpson syle :wink:
Also check your fueses never know. Look in your owners manual to determine what fues it is..

Thanks for the reply's. I'll check out the sites as well as the vacuum line as rust.
