Bit of advice needed please guys, yesterday I pulled a caravan out of a field with ease, selected 4L just to try it really as its an airstream caravan so pretty solid and didn't want to bog down, anyway all went well and not even a smudge left in the field, reversing on full lock there was a bit of wheel slip on loose gravel which i'd expect,
put back into 2h and drove home fine, did the school run this morning, fine, got about 200 yards from home slowing down and I heard a Tink sound (a bit like a stone getting chipped up,) noticed straight away she didn't feel right, thought i had got a puncture! I got home but cant see anything hanging off etc, no fluids fallen out! it now just feels a bit weird under acceleration and braking, steering is not pulling, I drove along and selected neutral and she rolls freely as I thought a caliper might be stuck on, rolls free in d and r, seems to be a bit more vibration than normal but then I may be imagining it as she's always been a typical 3L lol,
So i'm wondering if it could be the front diff maybe somehow engaged itself or something, there are no lights on the dash, is the front diff controlled by suction like a pajero on the 2006 rodeo? or is there an obvious common easy to fix issue that I am missing?
cheers guys

Jacked front left wheel off ground wheel spins and turns driveshaft freely same happened with other front wheel I would expect some resistance if the diff was engaged I assume |

it done by a motor on the rodeo so no vacuum pipes, when you say it feels funny what does it feel like? have you checked the leaf springs incase it's broken one? |
