Hi people it's "daddy" here lol (well I brought the 4x4 to get Jody to hospital if it snowed, and it served its purpose!) now it's vibrating when I accelerate! (the car not Jody) stops vibrating when I take foot off gas! So I doubt it tyre related or bearings :( it doesnt do it all the time, just most of the time.......any ideas ?

Hope your all well, most all go out for an evening of mud and a beer

Congratualtions mate.

You symptoms were the same as mine, I had vibration at about 25-35mph then it seemed to go.

The last thing I though was wheel bearings as I checked them a couple of months ago and they seemed fine.

New bearings, £30 inc gaskets and new locknuts.

Leaving it to desroy itself £150 -£400 depending on if you do it yourself or leave it to a garage, although I do know how to do them.
 
No sleep, stink of puke, and poo everywhere! Will have a look underneath tomorrow see if there's any play in propshaft (there is a funny squeak coming from somewhere, but only when I'm driving) ...all signs are pointing to uj's (will need a grease gun won't I ). The last owner had done all the wheel bearings.

Anyway off to change a nappy

can't make it this week to busy at work. next week will be good getting 90 back tomorrow alternator sorted, starter sorted with the help of a lump hammer, getting at's put back on refurbed rims should be a bit better all round in this weather. let me know when
 
Mine is back on the road with new front bearings and new rear shocks.

Would be good to give it a decent run.

I still have the vibration at about 30 mph so got to check the prop shafts next.
 
I am up for a run out this week maybe next week as well.:):):)

cant tonight as I am picking up my new bumper.

Just got to get all the things done now , Lift blocks and bumper to be put on. plus new oils.......
 
I will be glad to get mine all done. Getting the front UJ sorted at the moment.

That should sort the vibrations out.

Think the injectors next to get the engine smooth again.
 
Chris Please can I borrow your workshop for a few hrs sometime, to do a couple of things on wagon in the dry and out of the wind?
 
Come and do them on my drive, its lovely and warm with about 6 layers of clothes and there is tea and coffee making facilities... :D
