Thread: No rear drive from LT95

Given the above I would say the opposite - you have an issue with the front drive - maybe in the diff - not sure.

To me this would explain the rear not turning and the front spinning (no load on the front) and then getting drive back when the cdl was locked.

Jack the car up at the front and lock the front drive shaft and see if you have full diff action - when you turn one front wheel clockwise the other should turn anti clockwise - if that works then with the front drive shaft locked and one front wheel locked then the other wheel should not turn - if it does you have a front end issue.

If there is no issue then back to your idea of something more sinister in the Tfr case is amiss.

Obviously with the rear wheels off the ground are you getting drive to the rear with the CDL off (handbrake off).

You need to determine where you have drive and where you do not.

If we return early enough from work Tomorrow I'll jack up the front end and take the front axle for a spin.

Agree, sounds like front axle/diff

Problem found, the left CV is cactus ... Picking up parts, seals, gaskets and bearings Tomorrow, I've decided to replace both sides including the swivel seals.

While you have the centre diff out check/replace the shims on the planetary gears and this will reduce some of the slop in the driveline.
