I did use diff lock in second gear. Dissappointed with the bfg, after spending so much on them I think I will have to wait for them to wear out!

Very pleased with the BFG all terrains, the only problem I had last week when the treads filled with soil and went onto the damp grass, they were just like slicks with no traction up a slope!

Finally got to the reason for the vibration! A 50p screw! The grub screw that holds the handbrake drum in place looked and felt tight, took the screw out, it was cross threaded and twisted so looked to be holding the drum in place but actually was nearly quarter inch out. Replaced with new...

Thanks for your thoughts. I discounted the rear diff because with the rear prop disconected there was no vibration, and the gears are still moving being driven by the rear wheels rotating!

What are your thoughts on Cooper discoverers?

No only driven with front prop off, will try the rear one tomorrow.

Thanks for your comment, This vehicle had boost alloys with odd tyres on it so I thought the same so changed them for a set from my other defender that has a nearly new set of BFG all terrains, had all four wheels balanced and tracking done, vibration still there! The front prop has been...

Hello, I'm new on here and have posted a similar problem with my TD5, vibration at 50mph which feels like driving over a rumble strip! Have you had any luck?

Hello, Just to introduce myself. I sold my L322 Vogue last year and am left with 1988 Defender 200 TDI, 2001 Defender TD5 and a 2013 Range rover sport. Advice required regarding vibration at 50mph. 2001 TD5 with new chassis. Changed front prop tracking done and all wheels balanced, seems worse...
