I'm not familiar with your truck but it sounds like your rear differential is shot. Do you hear any strange noises comeing from your truck when you accelerate or brake. How is the acceleration from a stand still?

does it have a center diff or trans? if a diff you need thicker oil, if a trans you got something loose. sounds like you lost a grub screw on one of the outdrives

Very true... could just be something loose. Definately sounds like you're not getting power to the rear wheels

I agree, sounds like the rear diff needs a rebuild.

i hope its just a grub screw it has cogs in the front and back so i guess i just pull it apart and see what can be tightened. thanks all for your help

please reply when you figure out what it was ..thank you. i had bald tires and it was doing that and when i got new tires it seems to be ok now. good luck

Maybe the wheel hex is stripped into the wheel.

I think the rear diff needs to be looked at. If that all checks out, then look at your center universal. You may have a one shot or the cup it is trying to turn is just spinning due to the set screw being gone.

Update please before requesting for more info. That way we can help narrow it down.

I was out bashing the LST last time I was home. Lost both the front and rear. Took it apart to find I lost a pin outta the left front hex and lost a grub screw and pin outta a rear axle. The moral is you need to start looking from the hex inward eliminating one "could be" at a time. Good luck!
