Hi all,

I have lost drive to both front wheels. Drive to the rear wheels in both high and low range seem fine. There was/is no clunking or strange noises coming from the front end when in 4WD.

I have an auto locker fitted in the front diff and have the standard factory auto hubs that have had the manual conversion done to them.

If I turn the front wheels by hand with the hub locked in, the front tail shaft doesn't turn.

I have removed both hubs and I cannot see any physical damage with them.

I marked the end of the axle, refitted the hub and with the hub in the locked position rotated the wheel 180. I then removed the hub and the axle was still in the same position it hadn't rotated.

If I spin the front tail shaft by hand both front axles rotate. This was done one wheel at a time.

I think my problem lies with both front hubs. What do you think? am I going about checking this correctly? My concern is my checks are being done under no load.

Is there something else I should be doing?

Thanks in advance for your help.
