[QUOTE="PaulSac, post: 1556776, member: 19183"] Hey guys, I just finished rebuilding my 83 Toyota front axle. Now when I put the transfer case in 4wd the front axle is very hard to turn. It will even hold the truck on a hill in neutral. If I have it in 2wd with the hubs locked its fine. Here is what I did: I rebuilt the axle following 4crawler.com walk through from the toyota bible. I installed RCV chromolys (I did a little grinding in the knuckle for clearance) I put in a v6 3rd with ARB (this came from the rear axle and was working fine there) I used a marlin rebuild kit and replaced all the bearings I'm not quite sure what the issue can be since it rolls fine with the hubs engaged in 2wd. The transfer case was working fine before. At first I thought maybe Randys messed up my new 3rd in the rear end and put in a different gear ratio but I jacked up the truck and turned the tire 1 revolution and counted the input shaft revolutions and they are the same front and back. Any one got any suggestions? [/QUOTE]
