Hi,
Just got my 4life double cab,it's a 2000 mk3
The issue I have is its been extensively used by an old farmer chap for carrying his dogs around and has been offload a lot
It drives beautifully in 2wd but when you stop and change into 4h or 4l it will drive straight but doesn't like steering,i thought maybe the front different but any suggestions?
Many thanks

you should not be using 4wd unless it is muddy/slippery/snowie ect u r probably experiencing diff wind up

tough to turn in 4WD is absolutely normal , as cheffy says, keep 4WD for the slippery stuff and you'll be fine
use it on tarmac and turn a few corners and you'll hear a very expensive bang as the diff gives up
have a shufty on your door panel , there should be a sticker telling you when to use 4WD
