Default Front right wheel is locked.....

[:@]Now after some bashing I find my right front wheel to be locked. Before I take everything apart, whats the problem? All the other wheels spin freely, but this one. I've done the diff cup mod if that helps.


Thanks,
Andy

I know this sounds silly but have you eyed up the drive shaft to the wheel. i bent mine like a banana and it jammed because it was fouling on the "a" arm

if the wheel on the other side is turning it will either be a messed up shaft(as above ^^) or the front diff internals. Or possibly it could be a problem at the wheel hub but i dont think it's likely.

Thanks but suprisingly it was the wheel nut being too tight.

You've gotta watch becasue if you keep your wheel nuts are too tight you can shear off your shafts where the pin goes through on hard landings etc.
