dooroy Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Removed the front prop from my 2001 Td5 tonight - the middle joint of the double cardan is very notchy ( the one between the 2 universal joints) . Disco wouldn't move then - remembered reading that earlier D2's had difflock but it was not connected. Had a good look and found the 'selector' . Moved it in to difflock ( front flange locked ) and Disco drove OK - but a few lights on . I presume driving like this will cause no further damage - apart from a few lights on ? Any advice welcome .

crispyme Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 As long as the front Axle isn't connected you can drive around in Centre diff. lock You may find it a bit 'bangy' when you pull away or take up drive, this is due to the backlash in the locking ring in the T'box - but it's fine .. It's a "Land Rover thing" But you're fine to drive around in rear axle / centre diff lock Eeyore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dooroy Posted September 22, 2010 Author Share Posted September 22, 2010 Thanks for reply . And you're right about the 'banging' - the Disco feels very different with only one propshaft . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
