    Damn zip ties are trying to make baling wire obsolete.

    Mine was check engine light caused by cracked and loose air damn that would collapse over 70mph restricting air intake.

    On an old Toyota 4Runner. Zip tied it back together and never had check engine light again.

    Duct tape and WD40 can fix anything.

    If it shouldn?t be moving but it is, use the duct tape.

    If it isn?t moving but it should be, use the WD40.

    Zip ties and bailing wire have similar applications as the duct tape.

    Loose trim could be sending pulses to the sensor. The sensor sends the info to the cpu and cpu sees a signal and figures something is wrong with sensor. See if it comes back

    Anyone have a minute to peek @ the driver front side of my truck this morning? Just a visual inspection with some contextual understanding because im hoping for an 'a-ha' moment. My truck sounds angrier than usual when I turn but only in 4 wheel drive, apparently. Least that's when its noticeable.

    Kind of a loud creak & wobble, maybe. Almost like its not engaged or ?

    (Ray1970: same 99 Ram 5.9 reg cab Laramie slt its always been - lol)

    My option for the repair is limited to firestone but historically they've lied & I'm not thrilled about going there so I was hoping someone could give me an idea of what to expect beforehand. Need to sort this quickly for the weekend.

    Please & thank you - Xa

    Without seeing it I would guess front diff or a drive shaft/axle.
    Make model and year?

    I would guess, judging by her post, that it is a 1999 Ram with the 5.9l engine.
