Actually got round to getting under this today as an impending trip home has forced my hand. Can't find any obvious electrical fault with the system, no loose wires or bad fuses etc and although the solenoids don't switch they do both work and there is vac at the outlet of both when they are fired up. Gonna check the actual axle stuff works next weekend then wire up my own system for it when it's dry.
Repaired my exhaust with my favorite bodge, a giant jubilee clip. The exhausts on these are really heavy and always seem to break there so the clip will hold it for a year or 2.
Also got round to fitting my de-cat pipe that I purchased on the day I bought the truck. The extra 1-2mpg should make a reasonable difference on my trip home. Also it has unleashed a fair bit of low down power, these always feel like they are massively held back but having the de cat on has freed it up a bit and given enough power that at the same throttle as before it is now happily power sliding round corners so I've had to ease off a little. It hasn't added much power really but there is definitely some improvement.
