braiden Member 21 Member For: 14y 10m 5d Gender: Male Posted 03/05/11 11:59 AM Share Posted 03/05/11 11:59 AM Hello all!Great forum here. I'm having some trouble with my diff. It seems to be single spinning. There is no drive to the drivers side wheel most of the time, but if I really hang the arse out, it seems to grab and start doing what it's meant to. When I attempt to slide it, it clunks alot. Not very violently, it's quite a gentle clunk.Is this a CV or the center itself? I've stuck my head under there and can't see anything out of the ordinary. Any ideas?Cheers!Braiden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its only if its an Limited slip centre that it should spin both wheels in most situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
