vibration
« on: June 16, 2005, 14:37:03 »
I have a vibration on the series three it appeared all of a sudden after i jet washed under it. It feels like the hand brake is still on but i have cheaked that, releasing fine. Also cheaked the road brakes not getting hot at all. cheaked and tightened the wheel bearings wheel nuts, prop has a little play at the front but not a lot i have had a lot worse on the disco, i will replace that as soon as i get the part anyway, uj's. its not stuck in four wheel drive. It happens at all speeds so its not wheel balance. :cry:
 If it's not the uj on the front prop i am lost any suggestions would be very much appreciated thank you.

It could be something very simple, like a clod of mud stuck to the inside dish of a wheel, worth a look anyway.

Yes i thought it could have been some crud  left in the wheel after cleaning but no it's not going to be that easy, just got a new uj fit in the morning and hope [-o<

There is a bit off play in the uj at the back as well not visibe on first check :oops: . Also there is a lot of rust on the rear propshaft some has flaked off not good, also the front prop has been bodged up with a different end so a uj will not fit properly. I have orderd two new propshafts from paddock yesterday. So that should be job done.

 Sorry yes check the diff's Thanks they are ok. :wink:
