I put my 82 away just for the winter 17 years ago :L and now I've desided the winter is over and so I went to get it out and do a rebuild. It was put away with the rear wheels up on ramps and the front on the floor. Well the rear is now locked up but I have no idea why! It was driven up on the ramp and parked. No the brakes are not locked nor is the emergency brake. I can turn each wheel about 1" in either direction and I can see the drive shaft turn a little also. But after that 1" turn it stops with a loud matellic bang. The driveshaft is now disconnected from the transmission in hope that it was the trans. No luck. Could one of the wheel bearings be a fault? something in the rear? Universal joint? By the way, a check of the diff. showed no fluid. It was refilled it two weeks ago but did not help. The drivers side wheel turns a little further and with less effort then does the passinger side.
