No drive on 90

--- Quote from: "bigfatsi" ---Front prop is the only one spinning. Is diff-lock hard to engage? How is it done because the seller seems unsure of how to do it! I've never had a 90 so couldn't really say!
Cheers for the help.

push the small lever over to the left fully & difflock light should come on the dash,might need a little help in a gear to get it in
bigfatsi:
Thanks. If I presume he did in fact have it in diff-lock. Is this beginning to look like a more serious (expensive) problem? Any ideas on what else it could be? He claims that the only prop moving when in diff-lock was the one to the front diff. Something seems wrong here! Appreciate your help.

Xtremeteam:
if its in difflock & the front prop is turning then it aint in difflock :lol:
if its in difflock both props should turn,if it was a gearbox fault nothing would turn,if the centre diff had exploded then both props would turn as it locks itself up :wink:
when in difflock both props are solidly joined together,
bigfatsi:
Ah. A little ray of sunshine! So it would seem more likely that he didn't have it in diff-lock properly? Which should hopefully mean that the problem is in the front diff as described? Could the diff-lock be knackered? About to set off for 300 mile round trip so could do with a bit of a boost!!

Xtremeteam:
it could be anything in the front axle TBH,if the props turning going in & nowts coming out it could be...
Diff,shaft,cv joint,drive flanges,
