Not only am I new to the this site, but also new to the Jeep community.  Getting my Chevy stuck all the time while Jeeps walk all around me laughing got real old.  I'm no trained mechanic, but pretty handy with stuff.  I have been meaning to share pics with you guys but havn't found time until my desperation is forcing my hand.  I have several issues with my new love that I'm not sure how to address.

First concern.  I recently replaced my u-joint on the passenger side of my axle which required me to remove my shift motor and pull my axle shaft.  That went perfectly fine until my shift motor dropped causing my three vacuum lines to disconnect.  I don't know which hole each of the three hoses belong in and have tried multiple combinations with poor results.  There are one each green, yellow and white hoses. Three female openings, one on the side of the cylinder and two protruding out with one about a half inch proud of the other.  My 4x4 seems to engage and disengage but now my light does not light up on my dash.  To top it off I don't even know what side of the truck the vacuum cylinder faces.

Secondly, probobly not related, but now when I have my clutch engaged I hear funny sounds like some debris floating around in my tranny.  Even if I crawl under there while the motor is off but still hot I can hear fluid moving around.  This one really has me baffled.

Third, I can probobly solve on my own but was curious if you guys have had the same problems.  My sway bar bracket on my axle keeps breaking.  I've welded it twice already and I think I'll have to fab a new bracket with a ton more contact.

Tried to keep it short and friendly, any advice is much appreciated.  Thanks.
