Subject:Only ONE drive wheel?
From:Brian Doss
Date:Sun, 12 Apr 2009 19:28:39 -0500

I have an '88 GL with a manual transmission. I got it stuck backing into an uneven driveway yesterday. Just so happened that I was in a saddle on a hillside, with just enough torsion on the bus to lift the left rear wheel off the ground - and presto - no go. The left wheel spun happily in forward or reverse. What I can't understand is that I thought the right wheel was driven as well - why did it not receive any power? Does this mean something is wrong with my transmission?

Thanks for any insight on the matter
