Jack it up and check wheel bearings as mine are worn a little and make the same noise

Jacked mine up yesterday and i have play in drivers side so have ordered new sets and disc's(mot advise)

And do them at the weekend

Long shot but remember you have a couple of nylon shear pins in the steering column designed to give up on impact allowing the column to telescope. I have had these shear in the past and it induces a thumping in the steering if you wobble the steering wheel. Doesn't sound like your noise, but thought I'd mention it just in case it's adding to the pasnhard noise.

Forgot to add that it clonks when you go from reverse to drive and vise versa, I have checked the prop and thats solid, I did read on a web-site that it could be the diff?  Ben

Range Rover Blues:
Check the hockey stick bushes aren't loose.  Rusty rem marks around the bolt heads are one giveaway.

Otherwsie wit an assistant try moving off forwardas and reverse and see if you can tell where the noise comes from.

It sounds like it's coming from the front prop
