lurch_917:
might be a stupid question but have you checked the harmonic damper on the front axel its the dinner plate shaped part that somed times falls of and as its strange for this to happen it normaly over looked as a fault

I never had any problems with mine when i took it off to fit my diff guard
nzoliver:
Hiya,
All present and corect. :police:
I am now just about convinced it is the fron output bearing. But....this is Land Rover.....NEVER say never :shock:
nzoliver:
OK all! Here's the latest! 8-[
I MADE them change the front output bearing today. It has made an 80-90% difference!!!! :clap: BUT, the vibration is just still there at the same speed but only just. Now, i'm going to have the driveshaft ballanced tomorrow to see if that is the problem and if it ain't, well I'm not sure what to do next as this small problem could stuff another bearing in not too many miles and we end up back at square 1. :roll:
I'll keep y'all posted.... :?
Range Rover Blues:
It's entirely possible that running out of balance due to the bearing has bent the front prop a tiny bit. I had a rear diff bearing collapse and byt he time I'd stopped the truck the rear prop looked like a banana :-.
