just come in from tinkering with my 1999 2.5 to p38 with your help thanks got the lights in the cab up and running Cleaned greased top up levels etc took it out beautiful the best I have ever had it then clink front diff has gone the prop is wobberly it's one thing after another and been in lanzarote it's not easy to get parts I see there are two types help or it goes on fire
 
A thank you when somebody fixes your last problem goes a long way!
Is it definitely the diff and not the uj's? Did you replace the diff oil/check diff oil level?
 
On the diff fault, yes there are two types, two pin and four pin, the diesel only had the two pin one, the four pin was for the 4.6 but either will fit but four pin is a lot more money and not really needed.
 
Many thanks Defoe the diff the flange is wobberly that the prop fits on I check the oil regular but recent I changed the wheel bearings due to noise
 
Sounds like the noise may have been the diff pinion bearing on its way out, if crown wheel and pinion ore ok it can be rebuilt, although it may be quicker to pop a second hand one in if you can get one ok, but postage on bearings will be a lot less to you place.
 
Iv got a front diff sat doing nothing came 2nd hand with my rr I haven't even unboxed it yet

Lad before me thought it was clicking more seems to be the prop uj and outer cv joint so the diff no use to me 20+ postage and it's yours

I think it's a rear diff Iv got with the harmonic balancer?
 
A lot of adverts say front or rear, I always took this to mean they are interchangeable but may be wrong others would know more.
