When I was verifying last time I had both front wheels off the ground, rotated one at a time and verified that the front drive shaft was not rotating, while the vehicle was in park. I can also have the two front wheels in the air and the vehicle in Drive or Reverse and the front drive shaft will turn yet neither of the front wheels are moving nor are the rear wheels or the rear drive shaft.


I'm pretty sure "the movement stops" between the front differential and the wheel itself.


I'll try one wheel at a time like you said, might help me find the courage to DIY if it happens to be only one side.



I'll find out in a few days after uni exams and I have time to work out in the snow/rain or push it to a mechanic. Will be sure to keep the forum updated.
