So, if the truck is running, and on the ground and you let the clutch out completely in reverse, does it stall out, or does it spin the tires?
This is a pretty good lead, only every slipping clutch I’ve ever been around stunk liked burning friction material. I still like the clutch as a suspect theory.Just another WAG. maybe the clutch is so worn out it is slipping? it has a enough friction to turn the wheels in the air, but once the weight of the truck is on it, it cant move the truck. no idea just throwing things out there. i cant wait to see what it is.
This is where I was going. If the engine can drive the rear tires when they are in the air, it seems like the issue shouldn’t be in the rear end or drive shaft. I think I would try and move the truck again under its own power. This time let out the clutch all the way. It should either move, stall, spin the rear tires, or drag whatever front tire doesn’t roll. If you don’t get one of these results your clutch is slipping.Just another WAG. maybe the clutch is so worn out it is slipping? it has a enough friction to turn the wheels in the air, but once the weight of the truck is on it, it cant move the truck. no idea just throwing things out there. i cant wait to see what it is.
