hello everybody what an awesome site, thank you for all the info.
Well I just bought a 2001 f250 7.3 diesel and the esof is not working. In on wheel ity says auto and lock on the other one it says free and lock, are these to different hubs or they are supposed to be like that. When i look them manually they work fine. where should I start looking to fix this problem. Thanks

Hello again guys, I replaced the vacuum hoses they where cracked but the auto option still not working, if i pull the hose off in the axle and have someone turn the 4x4 **** should I feel the suction at the end of the hose. If I turn the **** I feel the little vacuum pump thing go off and it stops after a minute or so I guess the problem is not there. I don't mind locking them manually but I wanna fix it for the wife. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
