I don’t think so mate, that would be soooo good, it was hard enough putting it in on a bare chassis

Thank you everyone, every point is valid as it makes me think of something else to check so cheers. Well spoke to one if not the last of the LT95 gearbox repair specialist shops in the midlands and nothing shouted out to him (lovely chap). Check handbrake not to tight (to be honest it needs...

I did wonder if that was possible as it had the noise when I purchased it but I thought it was just because the gearbox was knackered (and it was even cracked). My other thought was get it up on axle stands, run it and then go round with a stethoscope

Hopefully not upside down as you need the bracket support on the underneath of both diffs?

No just the standard vacuum diff lock

Mmmmm that was my thoughts. Can’t be locking brakes on as its all too basic. I would assume it locks something in the transfer box and yes perhaps that’s the **** metal noise it’s making after driven half a mile. Noise gets louder and louder (no metal in the two oil changes it’s had in 750...

Hi Guys just an update. Changed to 80-90 oil as per Bexhill gearboxes thoughts, slightly less noise but hasn’t solved issue (waste of £40 oil). Now waiting on book to see what other things to check. Not sure if this highlights anything, I put the diff lock on and slowly pulled away on gravel...

I’ve ordered the book. Thanks again dude

Hi Ratae That is an excellent answer and one I can start working with, thank you you so much. I will post my findings for others. thanks again

It’s more of a metallic bearing noise

No it doesn’t have one, I was more thinking a bearing and or thrust washer? Sorry LT95 as it’s more know

Well guys thank you for all the support. Everything replaced now including wide angle props. So last thing that be making the noise is the LR95 4 speed gearbox. When this was installed it was a fully reconditioned box and transfer, built by a lovely chap in the midlands that worked back in the...

Will it drive without front prop, that would tell me if it’s the gearbox/transfer or front issue?

Checked front diff all looked ok, slight play but not too bad. While putting back together will be doing seals on swivel balls. All fills quite tight, could cv joints make the grumbling noise when decelerating?

After changing the front diff today the only thing left will be props to change so I’ll wait and see. If noise not gone I will lift the front and see if I can find from that, hopefully diff will solve

I hope not as that was all refurbished as well

So I’ve been hunting the noise that appears when slowing down and or free rolling out of gear. (Aways been there since chassis up rebuild) My fist thoughts it was gearbox so refurbished gearbox etc all fitted while body off, no change. My next thought on noise direction were rear differential...

Probably above my paid grade
