I'm not an expert by any means but I am eager to find any help or advise i could get. I'm a full time student at Wyotech and I havent gotten my baby dirty like she deserves. I just changed the fluid and it was very low.. and i know in all IFS Diffs from '95 - '03 tacomas theres the bold together design some have vaccume some electric accuators engauging. I'm curious if there is something electrical? Is it the Hubbs? Is my Diff siezed or something? Any advice would be greatly appreciated Thank You!!

My initial questions to him are:

Manual hubs or ADD?

What method are you using to find out the front wheels aren't pulling? Did you jack the front of the truck up or are you checking some other way?

Does either CV spin when rolling?
