Two violent, crunching bangs came from the front left of the GQ today when in high range 4wd on a muddy track (yes we had rain in SA today)! That was preceded by the vehicle pulling to the right, and then several seconds of a very unhealthy grinding from the front diff.

I now cannot drive the vehicle with the hubs locked, although in 2wd it still seems to drive well.

I'm not looking forward to the quote to repair either a complete front diff or lockable hub. The vehicle has done over 300 000km and I've done over 100 000km in it and this is the first problem. Can't complain I suppose.
