Yeah, I know I'm lazy. I just don't feel up to swimming that far today. If it was "just" 500 miles, I might have considered it. A video may help us troubleshoot, but nothing beats a hands-on approach.

How hot is "very hot". Don't forget, the front shaft is at a pretty sharp angle, so the friction there will tend to heat things up a bit, but should still be reasonable. Are you melting things? What's your setup again (motor/battery)? Maybe it's spinning too fast making a slight heat problem into a large problem? Locking the center diff will only help if your problem is in fact high rpms because the front unloading will make the front spin even faster creating more heat.
