My shop told me that most of the vibration got better when changing the flange and that they will attempt to Fix the Shaft since he doesnt Know or want to install for some reazon the shaft Todd sent. Now this is were I could Use some Help Please.
Shipping from Georgia to Mexico wasn't going to be cheap....but i know he only charges what the freight carriers charge. How much was it?

And once again...can you post a pic of the parts he sent you?

Hi again ..

Jycsalas... It´s been a real tough month sorry on not Posting but lost my Computer and this crisis added by the Swine Flu is really Kiking in my bussiness.

Well It also Turns Out I still havent found the source of vibration.. Changed Diff Oils I dont Know if there were any metal shavings But I strongly dont think so.

Only Thing Left is to Re balance the D Shaft and Check Diferentials.
But dont think Ill find anything there. Ill also chech Diff Mounts and hell Ill check all mounts but I´m really Getting tired Of this Truck.

Any Pointers will Probably get me interested again on my new car Hobby.

HELP

I have had a vibration in mine for a while. Been tracing it on and off, and I knew it was not the shafts as I had rebuilt both of them.

Recently, I removed the rear shaft (as vibration seemed to be rear end) engaged the CDL and road tested, Much smoother........so thought about getting the shaft balanced, took it to a shop and they wanted it to be left with them for a week !!.......no good to me, anyway he ahd a good look at it and confirmed my theory that it is unlikely to be the shaft as it was in perfect mechanical condition.

So with that in mind I rang me m8 up, he come round and I swapped his shaft into mine, (good job I did, his shaft was loose and DEF in need of a good clean and grease, yet he had no vibe at all LOL)...took it for a spin and the vibe moved from 60mph - 65mph up to 75mph +. mmmm pretty much confirmed the shaft was ok.

So with that in mind I had to look elsewhere. next thing to look at was the mountings, the 2 rear T/box / tranny mounts.

They "looked" ok but it was quite easy to push and move the T-box around under the car, so I thought they could be a little "weak". Took the plunge and bought some new ones. Installed them yesterday. The r/h moint turned out to not be to bad when compared to the new one, but the l/h side twisted on itself when undoing the nut, and once removed I could physically turn it on itself about 45*, where as I could not move the new one hardly at all !!.

Once installed the t-box also hardly dropped when letting the weight back onto the mounts, and I found it much harder to move it all about under there. Took it for a spin and "bingo" no more vibe anymore!!

Im going to replace the engine mounts as a matter offcourse, so its not "always" a driveshaft issue if you have vibes at whatever speeds. Worth having a look..........

Ill do everything you did , I was thinking Last Night that I had overlooked something.

My best Bet was D Shaft but Your Mountings experience for some reazon sounds very logical. and my Vibration is a Tipical Mounting as far as I Know.

Ill Try to find an extra D Shaft to replace and go for a spin . but that will be very hard since there are hardly any L Rovers down here.

But Thanks a Lot and Keep You Posted.
