I backed my 8 N out of the barn today. There was a "clunking" noise coming from the brake drum area. When I tried to turn, the back wheels would not slip to let it turn. I jacked one wheel up, applied the brake to the one on the ground, put it in first and it pulled right off of the jack. What is going on? When I turn one wheel 1 should go faster (outside) but they are both turning at the same speed. I drove around on grass and blacktop trying to get it to break loose but could not. Is this a do it your self fix? Thanks in advance.

It sounds like your differential is locked up, for some reason or another. The clunking in the brake my be a coincedence, but it probably wouldn't hurt to see if that brake was stuck.

How big of a job to repair this?

As everyone's level of expertise varies, i would reccomend you get the I&T service manual and read up on the removal of axle's and differential. As you mentioned a noise in the brakes, you may want to start by pulling the brake drum and making sure that your problems not out there. Good Luck!
