The symptoms are--spinning drive line, lots and lots of clunking and rolling when in park. When I engaged the diff lock I could dive the vehicle. Did I blow out my rear diff?
Thanks,

Maybe,
But you might have simply broken an axle. Open things up and have a looksee. If you did break the diff, you can get in the long line of people before you who have done the same. Myself included. Replace it with something better. Like a Detroit Locker  It's cheaper and stronger than a genuine replacement.

Breakage is expensive but still a great excuse for upgrades Perrone---I hadn't even thought of the axel untill your post. I probably should have investigated it...but if I would have found only a broken axel I would not have been able to convince my wife of the necessity of the arb locker I ordered today. Won't that be a bitch if if my only prblem is three rear axels instead of two?

Brian, did you ever get that cdl taken care of? Was it just the linkage? How did you fix it?
Good Luck with current malady. JMcD |

Jmcd,
Yup..I got the cdl fixed. I am not real sure how I fixed it but I disconected it from the silver u thingy and manualy engaged it for about a month. The thing just kept working better and better on every trip. once I wasa positive that it was functional I played with the lever. I think it may have been all gooped up or something from lack of use that it just wasn't engaging fully. Works great now and it's a good thing too because I'm a front wheel drive disco now.

Well, glad that worked out. Nothing better than when something just kinda 'fixes itelf'! Good luck with the rear dif, feel glad you have a removable third member!!
