« on: March 15, 2008, 21:14:30 »
i have just removed the rear prop shaft put it in 4wd and there was only enough drive to move me but not enough to drive me .the last time i went offroad i noticed the back had a tendancy to slide around i am assuming now that this was becouse there was no 4wd is there any easy solusion to this problem as i have already spent 100,00000,00000 POUNDS on it this year?

Did you have the diff lock in?

If you didn't the power would all be going to the output shaft that has the prop removed.

You need ot get underneath then and see if the rear output flange is turning or not, either that or jack up one wheel on each axle and see it turning the front wheel makes the back wheel turn (in difflock).

Don't rule out the possibility that the lever for central diff lock has come loose and is not actually selecting diff lock.
