Post by poppeye »

have patrol swb with 5 inch lift and when at speeds over 70 and only when i free wheel (put clutch in) it makes a shocking grinding noise still changes gear up and down perfect. have put new diff in rear where i cut and moved spring perches etc to roll diff back so tail shaft angle is fine at diff end. has new thrust bearing new clutch new t case bearings new tailshaft so its not them only thing i can think of is it might be uni angle at gearbox so have 4inch springs coming any other ideas. its doing my head in

bad uni angles would create vibrations - a grinding noise would be something different i would think....correct me if I'm wrong??

Is the noise caused by putting in the clutch, or is it that you only hear it because with the clutch in, it is a lot quieter, and therefore easier to hear?
