I thought the NV247 would always drive the rear wheels and only drive the front on wheel slip.

Don't these have a central diff lock on them that you can throw in? Or have we been stitched up with too much technology again?

Clarky is that the one you replaced a couple of years ago. How many ks did it do? I hope CV860 has the right number of splines as there seems to have some talk a couple of years ago wether these fit or not.Maybe the the cv would last longer if taken off cleaned and repacked with new grease.I might give it a go .

No, only hi & low. Center diff locked only in low range.

Yes, approximately 30,000km ago.
When I removed it I found the bolts were loose, one was a quarter of an inch out.
Probably from the corrugations on some of the outback tracks. I Should be more observant.

That happened on my one , after some 'mechanic' removed and refitted the front propeller shaft. Did not follow the simple instructions on tighting the bolts.

Developed a very bad vibration.

Hope it all works out OK
