Hi,
Here's a problem from a Dutch Explorer fan...
Over the last couple of months I have been experiencing diff problems with my '94 Explorer 4WD (VIN# 1FMDU34X2RUB82560). When driving away from standstill everything is fine with the diff lock switched on, however once I turn the steering wheel (either left or right), the whole drivetrain locks up.
Turning the steering wheel back in the neutral position and then putting the car into reverse will kind of unlock the diff again, but it has now gotten to a point where I cannot use the diff lock anymore because even a slight turn off the steering wheel causes the whole driveline to lock up.
Any idea what the problem is and how to solve it ?
Thanks a lot in advance for your thoughts,
Erik (all the way from Amsterdam, The Netherlands)
