We know Ronnie would know but he dislikes differentials - LOL*UPDATE*
I drained and refilled the diffrential with Mobil 1 75W-90 gear oil, took her for a 10 mile drive and even did some figure-8s in a church parking lot to get the clutches going - no dice. It's looking like it may be the carrier bearing after all. I noticed while I was under the ol' girl that the front and rear halves of the drive shafts were at remarkably different angles. The truck appears to have been lowered 2" in the front and 4 or 5" in the rear using some unknown kit. Does anyone know what angles the two shaft halves should be at?
BUT maybe, just maybe, if his dementia is kicked in he may pipe up so cross your fingers and hope he does
He's a pretty helpful guy I am gonna go with he will
Not sure if that info is in the big giant 4 inch thick shop manual and if I were at home I would look in mine for you - but, I'm not home sorry - good luck!
