Have received and fitted the drive shafts

I have noticed that when I turn the drive shafts only three of the wheel turn. The rear offside does not turn but if I turn the wheel nut itself the drive shaft does rotate. Is this right or do I need to reassmble the rear Diff (I think that what it is called)

Any help comments would be appreciated as I do not want to get to far ahead if I need to reassemble some parts

If the reaf diff was not operating correctly then neither of the rear wheels would turn. Presumably when you push the chassis along the ground it does actually move?

If the diff was operating correctly before being encased, then there is no reason to disassemble.

It sounds like you have a little drag which could be coming from the left geared reduction hub.
