Ok, i am reativilly new to defenders so please be gentle with me.
I live in Spain and before i left i checked the car over, topped up axle oils and gearbox and transfer box, the transfer box oil was brownish in colour, looks like it has had a small amount of water in there at some point, i drained and refilled.
The rear wheel bearing had a bit of play so nipped them up, with shafts out i gave the wheels a spin, no problems there, nice and quite and spun easilly.
Now i have just driven 1500 miles in two days and now i have very bad vibrations only under load, foot off throttle sweet as a baby, foot on and the whole car shakes, sometimes bad sometimes not to bad. happens arround 60 MPH.
I am thinking Axle? Prop Shafts? but could it eminate from engine as it feels a bit missey?
When i am doing 75-80 she is sweet but then not heavy load.
Any input would be most gratefull.
Best Regards
David
