could be your uni joint or a transfer case mount may be broken

ok kool thanks for the quick reply ill get it up on the hoist and have a look
anything else to look for ?

[31zook]

check that the four bolts on the DS are tight as mine came loose and kept knocking itself out of gear... also would shudder as i took off...

[zookster666]

just check for wear on anything that moves

[mudzookacoatsy]

ok then thanks ill look into it

Seized uni joint in the jack shaft!

[mudzookacoatsy]

jack shaft?

[zookster666]

drive shaft between the gear box and transfer case

[mudzookacoatsy]

ok kool wat the easyest way to tell that its gone

[zookster666]

If a uni is flogged out u'll be able to feel a bit of slop by holding either side of it and turning it back and forth. I hope you can understand this lol

not sure how to tell if its seized in the car but u could pull it out it should move around fairly freely
