bad vibrations

(1/1)

beast5680:
a friends rangie has started to vibrate when being driven, no matter what speed the vibration is still there
he,s checked the props etc which all seem fine but i wondered whether it would be the transfer box? would a 93 on a K have a viscous coupling? and if so how to test if its working

suggestions welcome :D

electricbluebadger:
Is he sure its not a seized UJ, it will show no free play but will cause a vibration, remove the rear prop and try driving in difflock, then vice versa with the front to narrow the issue down

Cheers Steve

beast5680:
dont know if its a seized uj or not he,s going to drop into work tomorrow so i can have a quick look so we,ll see what it is then

beast5680:
well my mate brought his rangie in today saying it wasnt the props as he had checked them :?  but i double checked and can only say he must have checked them from a mile away in the dark :lol:  front prop uj was utterly knackered to the point where it was about to drop out :shock:  so now he needs a new prop :roll:

Range Rover Blues:
My front one was the same, you could only see the play in it with one wheel on each axle jacked up so it would turn.
