La Habra,
California
So I got a weird one. I searched and all I could find was this with no resolution:
http://www.dsmtuners.com/threads/welded-center-diff-now-hard-to-move-car-forward.328139/
Pretty much same thing as this guy.
I had a 5 speed 90 trans with 23 spline t case and 4 bolt rear. The only change I made is adding a welded center diff and putting in an early 92 trans. The welded diff was sent out from the 92 trans to Jack's. I don't have the 90 center in my 92.
Anyways the car will roll fine for about 5 feet then I hear some clicking under the car as it binds up, even in neutral. Feels like the e-brake is on. If I lift the car in neutral and one wheel comes up first, as the weight comes off that corner the wheel will start to spin releasing whatever built up stress there was. If you then rotate the wheel a couple times and drop the car back on the ground it is freed up and will roll a few feet again and lock up. Tires measure .050in diameter from front to rear. Not enough to cause this lockup.
Where the hell do I start?
