Message	To test, Lift the rear of the car off the ground and place it in gear (engine off and parking brake off) or park (parking brake off). Attempt to turn one of the wheels. If it turns easily the coupling is bad. If it takes a fair amount of force to turn the wheel then coupling is ok. My guess is the wheel will turn fairly easily. -Jason
