Title: 3wd brute force? Post by: outindeltona on November 30, 2009, 09:29:18 PM well,i just picked up a 08 650i brute.has 10 hrs on it and is in very good shape..all except the 4wd system.2wd works like it should,switches to 4wd-and will only spin the front left wheel when i hold in the locker lever.right front acts like theres nothing attatched to it.the cv doesnt spin,no resistance when i jacked it up and spun it either.with both fronts off the ground,they spin independantly-the left will lock in and try to spin the rears sometimes though.i havent been inside the front diff yet,but was wondering what could be broken?is there some sort of planetary gear on the right side output?i tried to move the cv where it goes into the diff,and its tight and wont wiggle.
