if anyone knows what im tlkin about please help

You can get a cable actuator through Summit Racing (or I'm sure other such places have one), I can't remember the brand right now though. My buddy just bought one and it's cheaper than a new actuator but we haven't put it in yet so I can't vouch for quality or anything.

its called a posi lock and costs about as much as a new thermo actuator.

or you could go the better route and put a solid axle under the truck

[superchyenne]

thats my plan to put a ford dana 44 under her but i cant get all the parts and funds are low
i got a post on the wanted forum lookin for parts and advice so if u got either one it would help very much
thank you

Do you still need an actuator? I have a whole front diff sitting in the yard...send me a PM if you're interested

Thanks,
