So headed out to Teewah beach on friday morning for a 3 day camping trip, fully loaded with trailer in tow. So aired down before the beach, locked the hubs and in 4low and hear a crunch/thudder from the front right wheel when I take off (my front right has been causing me issues lately...bearing, replaced the front free wheeling hub too)
So I take it out of 4wd and unlock the hubs and all is good. Then lock it in again, 4low and begin to move and after a rotation the wheel shudders, enough to make a deeper inprint in the sand. Oh well, rear wheel drive it is for the weekend. Suprisingly didnt get bogged even leaving the beach, i think the 3 days of rain helped
Anyway, does it sound like its just the right free wheeling hub that is gone? It was replaced a few months ago with a secondhand one due to the old one not being able to go fully in the locked position. Or could it be something more? Just want an idea before I take it to a 4wd mechanic seeing as the last lot have caused me more pain than anything else
