has my diff locked

(1/2) > >>

way2deep:
hi,jacked up my rangie to check the front wheel bearings and the wheel would not spin ,thought with one wheel off the ground it would spin freely? it's a 200 tdi with a hi low  permanent diff lock box..thanks for any advice..robbie

lambert:
One in the air won't spin as the other 3 effectively hold the diffs still. Two in the air on opposite axles I.e. one front one rear will spin.

way2deep:
thanks mate.that's good news then...thought i had a major problem :embarrassed:

Saffy:
What type of box is on it then as I thought it be a perm 4 wheel drive but without difflock (if it hasn't a lever) like some of the D2 with the lt230 that hasn't the difflock mech fitted. Can't see it driving around with difflock on all the time unless there some other magic on a rangie (never owned one).

James.Harwood:
If there is no diff lock lever then you probably have the borg warner transfer box (I know all the P38's did). This box doesn't use a 'traditional' diff, insead it has a viscous coupling on the front output of the transfer box. It should not be possible to jack up 1 wheel and spin it.
