Should front driveshaft spin my hand when In 2nd on the ground
What is your question?
2013 ram 1500 5.7 4x4 front driveshaft spins freely by hand with front tires on ground. I hear a grinding sound from passenger side front after having to use 4x4. I’ve read the driveshaft should soon when driving because the front axle is always locked. I need to know if it should spin by hand.

Hello, I do not have a definitive answer for this; I'd recommend visiting a RepairPal Certified shop near you to discuss this with them. I do not know why the shaft would ever spin freely by hand. If connected to the front differential, it should work to turn those wheels as driven via the transfer case. But, I do not know what settings you are using and gear selected. https://repairpal.com/auto-repair-near-me Click the link or call us at 877-913-1554.
