So does it need to be oem fuel line cause it looks like it only comes in quite long lengths and is fairly expensive. Also the oem primer bulb is expensive tho amazon has some off brand ones for a lower price. As you said it doesn't really get used anyways so an off brand one should work eh? Another question, the two hoses that come up out of the carb, then join together and end up in the white plastic piece in front of the carb, two of those hoses have cracks in them where they clip on to the Y piece. Is that an issue? It doesn't look like they do a lot since they end out in the open. Could the cracked sections simply be clipped off and reattached? Thanks a lot for taking time to help  

what good is an ele saw going to do in the middle of no where ?, and second..do you really think a ele saw is going to cut a 12-18 inch tree up fairly easy ?..lol. lastly...just how dang old do you think i am..90 ?..rofl. anyway, i've got a 14 inch dewalt battery ( 20v ) pole saw, comes in really handy when needing to reach high limbs in the way, love it !.

I have a plan of attack..in pic, top is hardware that came with it, went to Ace and got 4 more u bolts and accessories,  gonna use 2 u bolts per corner instead of 1..also on rack the 2 flatbars on the back angled forward,(see pic), gonna drill into them and bolt it down there, (bottom of hardware pic with additional rubber washers), plus wife is small so gonna be more forward and not as far back as possible. Also,  if its not hard to remove rear rack, will be ALOT easier to remove rack, attach seat, then bolt rack back on..no room to get a pencil in between rack and fender to mark bottom of seat for drilling points ( see pic )...thanks guys, will update.

The front diff has an electromagnet on the back.  When you hit the switch, the electromagnet is supplied with 12V and connects the rear input of the front diff to the rest of the diff.    Not common for a front diff to fail without making a lot of racket while moving, so much more likely it's stripped splines on the front driveshaft.  If your front driveshaft is good, we'll try jumping 12V to the front diff actuator next.   It's very quiet when actuated, just a faint click, and IIRC the engine has to be running to put it in 4wd, so not something you'd hear with the engine running.

Ok, I'll look at it. If the splines aren't stripped then I guess the motor might be bad. I don't know how common that is. Should i be able to hear it engage? Thanks
