Title: Diff lock
Post by: thediscodude on January 01, 2010, 12:03:44

Hi all, just a question, i brought my disco 1 about 6 months ago and at the start didnt know it had difflock and i dont think the person before did as difflock to a while to get loose, but it got there in the end, but now . . . . it will go low and high but wont go over difflock side in the slightest, this isnt through lack of use, its just refuseing to go totally? hope i havent got to get a new transfer box, just wondered if anybody can help me out thanks ollie

Try engaging it manually, the lever is just above & behind the front prop flange. It may still be stiff on the pivot arm in which case give it a blast of WD ;)

lots of lube and elbow grease. get a friend to rock lever whilst you spray the linkage.
