    How cooked is my gearbox?

    Just trying to reverse out of mud when I've lost power to the wheels. Just a clicking noise with the tranmission heating up if revving. Going to recover it tomorrow.

    Check the transfer is fully engaged.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    If you have a Gap tool you can try a TC calibration otherwise you may have busted a CV.

    A busted CV would still give drive to the rear, as long as the t/c is locked, or does that not apply to D3/4?

    Well that eliminates the "I hope it's only" scenario then.

    From my reading (haven't got back to civilization) it won't. Unless you go into rock crawl mode. Here's hoping.

    Just guessing here, but sounds like the transfer box (centre diff) may have failed. This is a clutched system, so a recalibration may work,unless the clutch has burned out.

    Could also be one of the propellor shafts, but then you'd still have drive to the front or rear wheels.
