How do you un-wind a diff??
stratie:
I'll give it ago mate....infact i'll give any thing ago, been scratching me head for the last few days.
I have been told so far. To unwind the diff/diffs......
Drive on wet grass......
In reverse.
Round and round in circle's.
In a straight line.
??????????

Never heard so much interesting nonsense, what makes you think the diff are able to be wound up?

Thats what i have been trying to find out mick.
At the moment i haven't the time to start pulling it apart, so im going with what a few landrover owners in my area have told me...ie the diffs are wound up.
At the moment the old guy that owns it, is using my truck to get up and down the track to his yard. So im keen to sort his out asap.

Diff wind up only happens when your in four wheel drive, and the difference in tyre diametres causes slight wind up due to no central diff, soon as you move back to 2wd wind up can no longer happen, if as you say you get the problem only when in low and 4wd in high sounds to me like a tooth missing from the front diff or somthing along thous lines, let us know how you get on :grin:

Sussed it at long last.
Jacked up a corner and span the wheel a few time's.
Job is, how they say........A good um :D
