So I'm putting my car back together after the clutch job, and everything's back on (except wheels) and I start the car while it's still up on stands and go through the gears, my friend noticed that my drivers side axle isn't spinning
I shut the car off and spun it by hand but it only moves the passenger side axle about 1/4" in each direction, so I pulled the axle out (dripping trans fluid everywhere) and popped it back in and still same thing.
I read about awd's having an open diff but I'm not very knowledgeable about transmissions yet and I'm not sure if this is suppose to be like this or not?
