Wheels Locked

On my way to the Eastern Cape in the December holidays the wheels of my 2000 Pajero 3500 GLS LWB suddenly locked, I lost control of the vehicle and rolled. My wife and I were very lucky to escape with only minor injuries. Has anyone got any ideas as to what could cause a sudden lock of the wheels? There were no warning noises at all.

Blikseem :shock:

Any idea if it was only the rear or all four?

Only explanation I could offer is that the gearbox seized! M2CW.
