'Let one sit for about a year and now she's locked. Starter would not turn it at all so I replaced the battery with a new, fully charged one.
Nothing. (slight sound with volt meter dropping to zero) So I put the stick into 4th, let the clutch out and hook my tow bar to the front bumper and my 40hp tractor.
Pushing back and forth the driver's side rear dually will turn each direction but the opposite wheel seems locked--with the only slight movement coming from the play in the u-joint and drive shafts (no locker or spool)
One time experience with a stuck 230 six but never a V8.
Suggestions other than pulling heads or pan would be appreciated.
