    Then it's possible that there was no LSD additive included with the fresh gear lube.
    That'll sometimes cause symptoms such as you describe, as the clutches in the limited slip get too much traction without the additive.
    Other than that...
    Since I put MUCH larger tires on, they will rub the front sway bar at full lock, but I don't think that's your issue.

    I had the same exact problem after playing in some deep mud. Couldn't turn, it would chirp, and all of a sudden a "thunk" like something broke loose in the front. Took it straight home, pressure washed out all the mud and voila, no more problems, which leads me to believe it was a sensor problem. I had no lights, TOD was fine.
    My thought was that it was ABS. I didn't check for codes. But fortunately mine went away, and no problems since. I hope it works out for you. Keep us posted.

    I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

    Well, I decided to order a transfer case from a parts dealer in Utah. Placed the order last Monday and recieved the TC in AZ on Thurs. I'll have to post thier info...sometime in the future. Anyways, did the swap over the weekend and everything went suprisingly smooth. No more brake steer and not peep coming from the driveline. It's actually quieter than when we purchased the VX with 23,000 miles. If anyone has any questions about the TC swap please feel free to ask. Thx Jeff
