Hi guys, I just put some 2 inch lift blocks on my 200tdi defender which has 235/85r16 special tracks on it.
Ever since I lifted it I get a strange noise ( like I'm driving on the rumble strip on the hard shoulder) when I either power on or release power when going over 40 mpg, the noise only lasts a few seconds but is concerning me, has anybody had same issue or know what it could be, I have not adjusted or replaced any other parts apart from 2 inch blocks. Many thanks perry

Sounds like a uj or prop balance to me

Angle looks ok to me. Reckon your UJ(s) is/are fecked somwhere. I had the same thing a little while back (before I put lift on though). The increased angle will make it more evident or worsen it if there was already worn UJ's.
