How do you un-wind a diff??

<< < (7/9) > >>

carbore:
Sorry what I was asking is what happens if you push the yellow lever in (4wd engage) with the red lever forward (high range).

I diddt see a reply to andy B's post on that one. (which I agree with) Currently my unerstanding is you are putting it into low and then putting it into 4wd but I could just be getting confused.

PS I was in Cirencester yesterday, used to work at QA in the Castle and have a few mates in Ciren.

Yellow knob should not stay down if pushed down when the red lever is in neutral or fully back, as in neutral or low range the transferbox engages four wheel drive automatically.

Cheers mucker.

Carbore, i remember playing in that castle  (when it was empty) when i were a nipper. Creepy i tell ya.

Ok the front prop is now off. I stuck it in low box and drove up and down the drive, and it all seem's fine.
So i think it's safe to say that it aint the transfer box.

I found some numbers on the diffs....
Front...22 57
RC1848cA-
W8G  27-12

Rear....18 E
   476133
JWSG 27-12


Dont quote on them number's, but thats the best i could make out.

I guess the next thing to do is pull the front diff out?
Will i have to drain the oil first?

Thanks for all your help fella's.
You lot Rock  :wink:

carbore:
I dont understand why disconnecting the front prop would rule out the transfer box. If the front drive on the transfer box is out of synch with the rear drive (i.e. knackered) then disconecting that prop will make  any symptoms go away

Or am I wrong (im no expert on these things!)
