Hi yes not been mentioned, but yep all good in that dept, general consensus was the UJ's. Given the condition of the UJ's I can't see it being the problem, no big deal just a bit of aggro for me to replace them another cold hour or so under the car tomorrow

No and actually one is leaking on one cap so I guess they are best replaced. It doesn't feel like a out of balance tyre, it's morel like a harmonic wobble Thanks of the replies, hopefully will refit the lot tomorrow

Yep that's how they are, anyway, the shaft's off now so will replace them, shame, I hate doing jobs like this on the drive, I will get my specialist to do the rear. So I guess back to square one on the wobble diagnosis..... Thanks anyway Keith

Sorry, I didn't explain that properly, there's no "slack" per se, they are just floppy not stiff but in the direction that they should be if that makes sense. would that cause vibration?

As an aside, mine overheated about a year after I fitted, from memory, was a generic stat. When the guys at my specialist did an investigation they told me the stat seemed totally "popped" was I think the expression they used, it was the only evidence they could find of a problem. I know it's...

Do you know what, it really wasn't that bad at all and everything worked out ok no seized bolts or whatever and I was able to do a bit of cable hose tidying whilst I was down there. Didn't quite get the prop shaft off tho' as I ran out of light...... Would've preferred to do other things...

Thanks Keith, that worked. Got the shaft off and the UJs are slack on the axis but there is no movement on on the bearings surely not enough to cause my mystery wobble........?

A very merry Christmas to all you experts out there, hope you had a good one. So having spent most of the day on my drive fitting new front brake gear I turned my attention to the UJ's in the hope of curing my wobble..... Just a couple of questions please. The front wheels are off the...

Can I quote Macbeth, I am in blood stepp'd in so far that, should I wade no more, returning were as tedious as go o'er.

I don't........just spent 600 odd for new discs, callipers mud shields, all power steering hoses UJ's and about to also spend my Christmas break on my cold drive fitting it all..........

It wasn't mine, honest.......

A water pump on a Jeep in a blizzard in Vermont, my hands hurt!!

Even if it is..........that's a pretty impressive roadside repair!!

Ok Thanks Dave, have bought the bolts any tips on replacing the UJ's? Keith, no evidence of any rust, I guess they are due a renew anyway

Understood, I have a large order going in at Island, will add them to it....... Not looking forward to this job Thanks for the tip Wammers

just been underneath, in neutral with the hand brake off, there doesn't seem to be any slack on the UJ's at all, just gave the prop shaft a really good push and pull, twist etc........is there a more definitive way of testing? Thanks evryone

Oh ****e........does that mean I've damaged the prop shafts if there is play? would lubrication help or should I stop driving it till I replace them?

What does that actually mean Dave, I know they are desperately in need of lubrication, would that help. Or do I replace them Thanks of the reply Ash

Ok Heres a tricky one 2001 2.5 turbo diesel At about 55-60 mph my passenger seat starts to oscillate and wobble. Which leads me to believe that something is out of balance........ Does anyone have any suggestions? Many thanks Ash
