So for a Disco, anything above 50mph.

Thank you Joey! Will try that, although from what I recall I cant get too fast on low range. Last tried on deep sand a few years ago, worked like a charm. Can I even get to 35mph on low? Will try, see what transpires. On the last front drive shaft change I've looked at the output shaft/bearing of the transfer case, no particular play or anything out of order noticed. Could it be the sagging of engine mounts? What was also noticed were clicks coming from the rear drive shaft when manually rotating the wheels with the truck suspended, the flex joint is fairly new nevertheless. Suspended up in the air on the professional lift the truck had no particular vibes going up to 55mph. But then again, its a very very different scenario from it on the ground. It is butter-smooth most of the time, but the sheer vibe after 75mph is killing it for me. :banghead:Joey said:Put it in low range, drive and see if vibe is still there it may be transfer case. Could also be a bad diff. I have a bad vibe around 60-70 on slight deceleration and I am 90% sure mine is the front diff. Lockers going in next month so I will find out soon.
