I just had this repaired on my 93 Blazer yesterday, underneath the battery box there is a vacuum actuater that has probably ruptured and needs to be replaced. It looked like an easy job and only took the shop 1/2 hour start to finish.

Where is the front differential actuator on a 1998 blazer?

The vacuum actuator is either in the fender or under the battery. The actually diff actuator is on the back/bottom of the front diff. Mine (2000 blazer) is under the battery. It sucks to get to. If you check the actuator and it doesn't move at all, check the vacuum, if it's not getting vacuum, check the switch on the top driver's side of the transfer case. It sends vacuum to the actuator. It has three vacuum hoses coming off of it. It costs fifteen dollars at autozone and usually greatly improves the performance of the acuator.

The 4x4 is engaged but does not engage into 4 Hi on your 2000 Silverado Z71 4x4?

It sounds like you need a new actuator. there is two things that lock in when you use 4x4. one is the transfer case and the other is the front diff. the front diff is turned on by an actuator. if you have a problem with the actuator the front axles wont lock in. even though the transfer case is engaged.

Raise and support front of vehicle with proper jacks. Unbolt front of driveshaft from diff. Unbolt both axles from differential flanges. Disconnect wiring shift cable and vent hose. Support differential with floor jack. Remove bolts holding diff to the frame. Lower diff on jack. You may need to turn the steering one way or the other for clearance.
