bullmastiff 615 Posted January 31, 2012 Report Share Posted January 31, 2012 I think modern diff locks only lock the central diff (front to back, not side to side) so even with difflock engaged you can still get two wheel drive (one front wheel, one back wheel) Try applying the brake and accelerater at the same time (left foot braking), this can sometimes 'trick' the diff into applying drive to both front or back wheels. Did you get to the hounds in the end! Quote Link to post
