How do you un-wind a diff??

I dont know any thing, any more  :lol:

All this just trying to help some old fella out. Still, thats what landrover owners do  :wink:

The transferbox operates with a dog clutch.  It either engages or does not.  I do not think it would give different rates of drive from either end, and the transferbox is bloody strong (arguably stronger than any of the others that were in Land Rovers).

Oddball:
If im correct in thinking it has no centre diff (and I could be wrong) then it shouldnt be driven on hard surfaces in 4WD as it causes transmission windup. With no centre diff its slippy surfaces only, same as my lux. Sounds to me like theres no fault......

Rich_P:
You can drive on hard surfaces when in four wheel drive, but if you corner then the transmission may begin to "wind up".  It's said in the manual that low range may be needed when pulling a heavy load uphill, and that by doing so you engage four wheel drive so run the risk of increased tyre wear more than anything.
