If either front hub is not engaged then there is no way that the other can spin. I hope this reassures you.
Best regards, Rustic

thanks rustic, would the open diff theory still be true if it is the same side that spins everytime? Is there a check i can do with the front jacked up in 4wd?
Where exactly should i be probing the alternator to check for 3a drain if the battery is disconnected? Auto electrics are a whole new world. I have a battery isolator switch which im having to turn off everytime i get out of the truck at the moment so am keen to get this sorted asap
