Looks like Ford is still using integrated wheel end (IWE) actuators on the F150 and Ranger to connect the front hubs to the front axle when 4WD is engaged. Does anyone know if the Bronco will also use this system?
I have read about numerous failures of the IWE vacuum-actuated system and I’m wondering if it’s something I should prepare to fix or alter. Coming from a recent Toyota which only disconnects the front axle (hubs are permanently locked), I’m not too familiar with the Ford situation.
