'orrid vibration
coming from drive line. Between 5000 and 6000rpm approx. and more violent in 5th gear for some reason.
I have put the car on stands, removed the wheels calipers and discs and then run the car through the gears. Could it be the flywheel ? I have recently fitted a lightened one. Gearbox maybe ? The vibration is bad enough to ensure that on the track I don't go beyond 75mph as the car feels just awful. The rear wheel bearings are fine and a new propshaft centre bearing was fitted 3000 miles ago together with a new modified (to suit Ford gearbox) and balanced propshaft. Thanks for any help.

'orrid vibration
I think I have an answer and you won't believe it
Whilst inspecting the propshaft centre bearing I noticed some fairly heavy denting on the exhaust, it is hitting the propshaft middle joint flange I will arrange for more clearance with the exhaust and see what happens, could be a cheap easy fix..... fingers crossed Or it's gearbox related and probably the tailshaft housing bush...... Anyone know how much lateral movement there can be in the propshaft centre bearing bush ? Thanks, TC An analogue brain in a digital World |
