So i want to put on my blingy new 8247 cover as seen here. It is hitting the 2 bottom bolts on the solenoid. Whats the deal here. Do i need to find a diff solenoid or somehow mod it to allow the cover to fit?



 
That is not an original solenoid; they don't have bolts on the bottom like that. Probably someone replaced one with a Ford tractor solenoid or some such. Buy an original one from Warn, or replace them all with a contactor.
 
ok i wasnt sure if there are like + or - ones or its all the same 4 solenoids. Newb to warns
 
All four solenoids are the same, they're just connected differently for in or out.

If you call Redding 4WD (the folks in the link I posted above) they will get you the right solenoid. The part numbers in their exploded diagram (in the link page) are for late-model 8274's. The solenoids are slightly different. But they know all models and can take care of you.
