Hey all,

I originally thought this might have been an issue with the diff. Fortunately, it seems more like the drive shaft is binding up. It's only affecting the rear right wheel. It does not affect any other tire. Here's what happens when I turn it.



If I compress the shock a little bit, the wheel spins much more smoothly.


This makes me wonder if that rear, right drive shaft is bent.

Has anybody experienced this? If so, are you able to give any advice?

Thanks again in advance! Sorry for the confusion on my earlier thread.

Can't see if the right axle is bent?
Or if there is a problem with the drive cups?
 
With the car on a stand the suspension is fully extended and the angle of the driveshaft is too extreme for smooth action. Under normal use with the suspension loaded a bit all should be good. You can adjust the droop screws to limit the down travel of the suspension.
 
I have tekno drive cups in the back. Had some issues with it as well. Now it is all good.
