Despite the shifter being engaged in 2 wheel drive, my front driveshaft is still engaged??? Also, it has always been a problem engaging in 2 and 4 wheel drive. It's a 98', does anyone have an idea what could be causing the problem?

I'm assuming that you're speaking of a Discovery which is AWD and not selectable between 2 and 4. There is a Hi and Low range + locking diff. Pull your owners manual for a breif description.

LOL - permanent 4wd as are all coil sprung Land Rovers

If you have problems going from high to low - just exercise it often and try it while drifting slowly (<5 mph) in neutral.


If you have problems engaging center diff lock - well, that has been discussed to death here - search for CDL
