...no go!
I'm the mechanic on a farm, so I haven't been driving it, but the farmer says it would "slip" now and then, but he never heard any grinding or scary noises.
A quick peek in the oil filler hole tells me the ring gear is turning.
I'm thinking stripped splines on the axle.
Any other ideas?
Thanks in advance

I would remove the back wheels and place on jack stands and try it in gear carefully to see exactly where the issue is in the driveline.
