Rich_P:
Wind up is basically, when both front and rear differantials and propshafts are forced to turn at the same speed (this happens in 4WD on a Series, and happens with centre diff lock engaged on permament 4WD), even though they need to turn at differant rates around corners.  This means the transmission will "wind up" during turns, which you will feel in the steering wheel as added resistance, as well as possibly extra tyre wear.  In the worst cases, it can cause the gearbox or transferbox to fail.

timberdog:
Anyone got any good ideas to make a home made pump to screw on the top of the Oil can to get Oil into Diffs etc pictures welcome???
