I got my ARB air leak problems fixed, used thread sealant. Took a couple times but no leaks. Now my question is....with both axles locked, rig is off the ground, should both tires spin together when one is turned by hand? My rear does but when I turn either front tire the other side does not move, that doesn't seem right to me.

Are the hubs locked?
 
And is 4WD engaged at the transfer? Or is the front driveshaft spinning?

If the front driveshaft is held from spinning, and both hubs are locked, then yes with the locker engaged both tires will spin in the same direction. When you unlock, then the other tire will spin in the opposite direction.
 

I woke up this morning laying in bed and it hit me.....hubs!! I continued lying there trying to figure out how to make this thread disappear with mind control.......it didn't work. I guess I need practice on that too.
:doh: is right!!
