can any of you kind people help.. lost drive and had to get the aa guy out. he told me the rear transmission has failed and only can move truck when diff lock is engaged. any info regarding my predicament would be realy appreciated. thanks guys
 
if you knock it out of diff lock and engage a gear get someone to see which prop spins that will show which axle , then look at drive members then half shafts then diff

thanks for reply if diff lock is not on when drive is taken up the rear prop does not turn at all only when dl is engaged does it rotate,,i am no mechanic and was wondering the best rout to go ,,eg refurb rear diff , just to get some idea whats required ,, thanks
 
if difflocks not engaged the prop going to the axle with a problem will spin,once you locate the axle remove drive members or hub caps see if splines have spun
 
do it yourself if its shafts and members (snigger)

about £70 and 5 bolts per side to undo..... thats for 2 shafts and 2 drive flanges.

undo the 5 bolts on the flange, and the shaft just pulls out

So does that mean that the front prop is spinning? If it is then that means the issue is with the front and not the rear!
 
when diff lock is engaged front prop rotates but the rear prop doesnt, try to move without locking dif and a hek of a noise comes from rear diff, and no drive at all.. goes into garage on thursday so dont real;y know wat to expect,,
