Erm if the fronts are spinning the rears are providing the drive that gets ya moving...
Right here is an up date, I have jacked one rear wheel up with it in gear and rocked the wheel back and forth and it is moving both the front and rear props. All the bulbs are in the dash and working, there are no lights on and no strange noises or anything. The rear is not giving any drive when the front spins it will just sit half way up the grass hill digging holes with the front wheels. I ant got a clue what to try next???? Can anyone help me????

it will do without a working center diff lock or traction control

How many gear levers do you have?

If you have a center diff lock, which you might not have, you push the hi-low lever to the left.
Even if you don't, it should kick the traction control in to brake the front wheels and transfer drive to the rears.

disco 2 uses traction control instead of cdl on most ,it should apply brakes to spinning wheels ,its not infallible but pretty good ,hence the question earlier about warning lights ,if yours isnt working

@ Quin - for the traction control to work properly you need to ensure the engine is at constant revs - about 2500rpm should do it - this allows the TC to operate correctly.

it does ,but to enable 4x4 on the road it has 3 diffs one in each axle and one in transfer box, center diff lock ensures both axles are driven and drive cant be lost through one axles wheels or wheel spinning traction control on yours should take care of that ,seems yours doesnt work
