Vibration

[Bobby~d]

Hey Paul the vibration is there even when I drop the clutch. I also had another shop check the suspension and wheel bearings and all checked out good. I'm starting to think that the vibration has something to do with the transfer case or the diff. Is it possible to get the vibration that I mentioned from there?

Quick questions guys. I believe I saw it in a thread somewhere but I can't find it now. Are the front axels the same between auto and manual g/boxes (facelift and pre facelift)?

Near enough.
The short axle that mounts to the gearbox rather than the transfer box (passenger side) is slightly longer on the manual car but the auto one fits fine.

Thanks very much Nick . All I'm getting here are the auto ones and the guys are telling me that they think that they are different (spline count and length). Great to know that it is just that slight difference in the length and it will work. Thanks again.

At a glance, I'd be almost 90% certain this is inner driveshafts. I had a similar problem with vibrations which was cured by changing them.

Just a little update on this after soooo long. I had all four shocks changed and the problem has disappeared. When I checked them after taking them out. The shaft on the front right one had approximately 1"-1.5" free play from being fully extended. The shaft just moved freely without any resistance. Loving driving the car even more now
