spanner newark (dislexia rules ko !)here sorry late.
fixed hub so everything spins all way to dog clutch n transfer box. including front prop, after all front diff doesnt have owt selectable. tyre pressures, could lead to slight wind up, and whine.

Just a thought....
Following on from what others have said, Id throw in camber and caster maybe needs correction, with all this crap weather about its easy to throw it out a little with all these ruts around and drifts etc, worth a punt to rule it out and put the old mind at ease.. can always be checked when the tyres are checked good luck

PITA in this weather but I would be inclined to rotate the wheels around the truck and see if that has any affect.

TBH I haven't, but it started doing it all at once and I haven't got any leaks...but soon as the temperature here gets back above freezing point

BUT, vis-a-vis a point Karl made upstairs, the diff is offset to the nearside isn't it? So if there was a problem with that it would sound like a nearside wheel/drive problem? Anyone know how complex that box of tricks is and if its economically refurbishable? Just want to try and have a list of things for the garage to check - its hard work these days finding someone competent with 4WD who can quickly diagnose issues like this.... Thanks for your input ladies. Much appreciated... |

I've got a front diff here if you want a complete lump, a decent bottle of port secures it

you can't beat a nice drop of really old port...someone gave the wife an F&M hamper last year with a bottle of 20 year old in it.....I can't tell you how beautifully that sweet stuff slipped down my throat....I think I know how a woman feels now
