Yes, I am referring to the pinion shaft.? I will take out the drain plug to
check, but I seem to remember seeing it flush with the inside surface case.? If
the drain plug is not the problem I will loosen all the nuts and let the
pumpkin drop out of the case a fraction of an inch and see if it moves then, if
not it will have to come out for inspection.? I'll let everyone know what I
find.Mike

?You can rotate the axle flange through complete rotation and the opposite
flange turns in the opposite direction, but the output flange does not move.
Axles run on spider gears located in center of ring gear ... they are free to
rotate even when ring gear is locked .. possible 'pumpkin' setting further into
axle housing due to thinner gasket on reinstall//maybe drain plug fouling with
ring gear? by 'output shaft' I assume you mean the pinion shaft which connects
to the drive shaft
