When I put the truck in 4wd the front axle does not ingage,and the indicator light does not come on. I have replaced the 4wd actuator with a brand new one,and checked the fuse under the dash, it is good.What else can it be?

Hi there,

Not so much a head gasket, but if seriously over full you could experience seal failure, as the crank case pressure could rise due to the excess oil level a leak could occur, but just a a little overfull should not be an issue.
