Found the source of my vibration!

Hi team...

After replacing the prop with CV, then back again when the CV was rubbish, I decided to check the bushes for the rear diff mounts.

I'm kinda glad I did... needed something else replaced as well as new bushes!! Vibration now gone.

Wow, thats the most rotten diff bracket I’ve ever seen!
Glad you found it and now cured your vibes - well done!

I suppose if you used poly bushes, you'd fit and forget and difficult to see when fitted.

Is this a root cause of the high levels of enthusiasm for cv drive shafts? Oops I’ll get my coat!

Ha ha, well yes it could well be! Just goes to show; be patient in your exploration and diagnosis before splashing out on new parts!

Fortunately, I got my money back on the CV propshaft (Which was duff anyway!)

Just a wheel wobble to go, and I'm totally vibration free!!
