Just fitted a second hand prop to my Freelander and first drive out in it i heard a knocking noise - sounded like it was rear drivers side but could just be rear in general.

I plan on driving it a bit more to see if it goes away or gets worse...

Lets see..

Unless someone here knows what it might be?

Check VCU, support bearings and diff mounts.

Support bearings and diff mount you can. There's a thread by Hippo or Mad Hat Man on here that will explain how to check the VCU.

O.k - Bearings didn't look too good. So prop is back off. Bearings removed.. Whilst off I'll check VCU see if it has some resistance... (tomorrows job).. Then to re-fit new bearings (also tomorrows job)..
