Question
When I finished putting my front bar back on and the car was still on jack stands I decided to turn the car on. The car was in neutral and I noticed that the drivers side wheel that was off the ground was spinning while the other side was not spinning at all... Is this normal? or is there something that needs to be looked at?

Re: Question
As above. Even when the car is in neutral there is still pressure on the drive line so it will turn the wheel or wheels if LSD is in the car.

Re: Question
yep, normal.
You'll find as the gearbox oil gets up to temp the wheel will progressively spin slower and may eventually stop spinning.

No sparks in spark plugs.

Thanks Mick
