1987 Honda TRX350d Fourtrax Foreman Front Drive

Hello,

I am new to the fourtrax and have done some searching without finding an answer.

For the front drive – is this expected to be all the time 4 wheel drive? I was riding and the front wheels don’t seem to pull. In fact going up a hill I had the rear slipping and the front not pulling at all. I jacked up all 4 wheels and if I slowly turn the rear wheels by hand I can see the mid-drive shaft spin, but the front drive shaft does not seem to spin. Every once in a while it will start to move the front wheels slightly but an pressure stops them from being turned by the mid-drive.

Any thoughts/suggestions/comments?

Thanks,
Nick
