Just been looking and manual reading. It appears to me like this. (Don’t mean it’s right would need somebody in long trousers to confirm)
Your 2006 was basically the same as the L322 underneath. They seem to be a limited slip diff which can be fully locked or variable lock through electronic control. This all reacts differently in diff modes.
So I guess this is where we get to why you had no drive, I guessing for this all to lock up the car needs to see, 1 spinning wheel or mismatch wheels speeds between axles.
If you have a broken shaft you get no drive, no wheel speeds, so the brain does nothing.
Earlier models were fitted with a torsion type ATB which as above would give same results, in this situation too.
That’s my take anyway,
Sure somebody will put my thinking’s right if they aren’t
Don’t actually help fix your problem right now though

it wife's birthday this weekend as well
Hope you got her the correct size/coloured overalls as a present
Front prop is spinning at t-box end but not at diff
Just picked this up on you other post.
Do you mean it all turns going into the diff but not the wheels? Or do you mean diff flange not turning.

Need to watch a couple more times .
And yes “should of kept defender” picked that up.

Yes that end of the prop is fubared
It’s turning around the gaitor on the shaft? So splines on shaft or cv broke, got to come off to find out which.
You had both wheels off the ground? Least resistance will turn opposing wheel in opposite direction. Doesnt mean you don’t have a failed/failing cv. Need to chock 1 wheel and turn other still won’t fully show if prop turns in the transfer box end, (when in gear) only 1 wheel off the ground should turn prop.
To check for the failed suspect you will need to lock the prop (chain wrench) and lift suspect wheel to see if you can turn.
Is that the one you repacked? You put all the balls back in didn’t you I know you did.
Was that the misses asking if you needed coffee by the bucket, good job you brought the new kettle
You really testing my grey matter tonight, and if anybody wants to correct my thinking then please do

Enjoy and relax. Why not go to cpl Jones and get a nice steak
Tomorrow’s another day

Turning nearside wheel, offside moves opposite direction. Prop spins notchy.
Turning offside wheel, nearside doesn't move. Prop spins freely
I have to say that frazzled me head.trying to work that out
Maybe the cv has failed in drive direction, which way where you turning wheels?
But whatever way you look at it you have a prop that don’t work and cv very suspect.
relax and enjoy the rest of your night
