Worn out.

See now that's weird.. Mine has 520 thou on it and still chirps when turning under power and pretty much any gear in low range.. must be a good ..

Ok Kallen. Dose the LSD ever need to be looked at? There must be a point where you would say let's have a look at it. Correct me if I'm wrong but my understanding of the LSD is clutch plates and springs. Is that right? If so they can't last forever. 4 to 5 hundred thousand is a lot of Ks.

Depends on the the driving. I shimmed the one up in my old GQ and the way it got used it was back to the way it was in about 12 months. If they havent had a hard life then they will last a while. But they arent perfect even when shimmed up, if you have one wheel tucked hard into the rear guard and the other cant get any traction it will slip.

Yea mine was a highway car for about 350 thou of its life..

You havent said if you selected either H4WD or L4WD have you, from inside the Patrol??

H4. I couldn't get it to go into L4. The green light came on on the dash.

I think there is the problem, if you were able to select low 4 your horse power would be doubled
giving you oodles of power, Hi 1 is still very tall as an off road gear.
Just because the light never came on doesnt mean you havent selected low 4.
But again thats where your problem is IMO
I think the others would agree too
