I was out of town for two weeks for some training in AL, and my jeep was parked at the airport. I got home friday night and drove the jeep back to my house and didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.
Yesterday my father in-law and I were going out to run some errands, I backed out of my driveway, and when i went to shift from reverse to drive, the jeep just wouldn't move, almost like i had the parking brake on (it wasn't). I put it back in to reverse, rolled back a few more feet, and it went in to drive just fine.
We get to the store, park it, I check the under carriage/drive shaft/pumpkin/trans/transfer case, couldnt see any obvious leaks or shavings, signs of rubbing or binding.
We finish our shopping, I back out of my parking spot, and the same thing again. I get to my house, and notice that when creeping in drive at an idle the jeep kinda lopes, almost like i am touching the brake, then frees itself, and does it again a few feet later
my rear axle is a dana 44 with an ARB, and 4.56s. I haven't cracked the cover yet, but I'm thinking that there may be something wrong in the locker. Was wondering if anybody might help me with what else to look for. Also wondering if anyone has ever had to rebuild an ARB?
I'm a little irritated right now, I just installed these axles. When I bought them I had the guy pop the covers so I could inspect the gears. I also put air to them to make sure they engaged/disengaged properly prior to putting them under my jeep.
