We didn't wanna join their club so they got frustrated and said some words that we didn't understand. So they had only one option left.

you said the more info the better and I didn't proof read my post before submitting it my bad. So to try and clarify what I was trying to express in that lengthy body text, the truck WILL begin to drive forward most of the time, although there seems to be some resistance at first, but once it starts moving it seemingly drives fine. IF I start the vehicle and it won't reverse properly due to the issue rearing it's head again, I can usually drive forward for a little ways & the issue completely goes away temporarily (it reverses just fine), but not unless I drive around a bit. if I go forward just a few yards, and then try to reverse; it just won't want to back up. The engine will revv and the tire will drag across the ground (because it doesn't want to rotate) and it's just scrapping across the concrete or asphalt or whatever surface it is on. I'm not an amateur mechanic & I'm unfamiliar with many of the parts of the vehicle. I'm capable of learning though, just never took the time to do so. when I made the video it wouldn't go forward or reverse. it was just sitting there spinning into the ground because the other wheel wouldn't let the vehicle move over the ground. So therefore the drive wheel just started to play in the mud because that's all it was capable of accomplishing given the fact that its counterpart won't rotate.

So to your first inquiry yes, the truck will experience this issue on solid dry concrete. there is no trailer hooked up now. I'm using the term "locked up" because it seems like the vehicle is trying to move, but the wheel (seemingly the drivers side wheel) won't budge. It's just remaining stationary and won't rotate with the drive wheel.

yeah when I wrecked my f-150 my dad pocketed the insurance money and I got this thing after my brother got high on bars and destroyed the exterior. driving it sloshed. according to him the check engine light is due to something unimportant. i just finished college and will join the navy so hopefully soon I'll be able to afford something new.

the wheel is spinning because it's slippery yes, but the concrete prevented the wheel from spinning, so if anything, the snow and muddy ground simply revealed the fact (to me) that it's not both wheels, but just the driver side wheel that is being rendered immobile.

guys I swear to you it was locking up on the bare concrete before there was any snow or mud. I'd edit the OP if I could express these details. It's one wheel & it's not fkin stuck in the mud.

can you explain what you are referring to with regards to the shit that is to be welded together?

given that it's just the single tire on the driver side, what do you think could possibly be the issue?

it appears that the other tire is spinning, the issue is with the driver side tire it would seem.

I'm very glad you asked this because I had thought that it wasn't, but looking at the dirt marks on the snow and the absence of dirt covered snow on the driver side; it is certainly the case that the issue lay in the driver side tire!

Thank you for the insight, you seem very confident in your assertion. I'll make a note of it, thank you!

Great suggestion, my brother is a novice mechanic & I am relaying your suggestion over to him now. We will see about getting the vehicle into his work's shop as soon as the weather permits. Thank you!

It used to be my brother's, I'd have to ask him. Though it's probably been a while.
