    I assume you mean you engaged the difflock. You still need to engage the diff lock just putting it in low gear will not help. The diff lock can be engaged in high or low.

    Not again!!!
    It's the rear right handside axle and drive flange again for the 3rd time!!!
    Still last time it happened I was able to move with the front wheels, but nothing this time so it could be more.
    I did take off that cover on the gearbox and nothing amiss.

    Does this help to not break axles? Just from wear to the splines im guessing.....How much oil do you run in yours? I put about 3-3.5litres in mine today when i did it, is that enough? It just doesnt look like it will get up to the height of the axle tubes and out to the bearings

    "oil lube"
    I was told to drill a hole in the oil seal, is this what I'm supposed to do?
    And if so what size drill should it be and can it be done in place or remove drill and replace?

    Search 'oil hub conversion' etc here. There is a whole lot of help on this subject.

    As mentioned though, should still've moved in Diff lock???
