        I need to find a thread that goes through chasing down where is PROBLEM?  When

         there is no 4WD.

        when one wheel turns so does the other,unless somebody's wife is holding the other wheel.(mucher safer if it yours)

        You guess, am I talking about the wheel or the wife.

        When i turn the wheel with the cover off the drive shaft,the drive shaft turns in one direction but not against resistance by holding the shaft. that is far as I got. where to next, or is in the front diff?  Cheers

          Hello,

           

          It sounds like you have verified that if you turn one front wheel the other turns

          I assume by hand?

           

          If you believe that the front axle is okay the next most probable cause id the fron drive shaft.

          The front drive shaft is not splined on each end. It has grooves with ball bearings (individual balls) that form a sort of U-joint.

          It is pretty common for those fail.

          So look up instructions for removing the drive shaft and take a look.

           

          Good luck,

          Jim
