horrible sound

rokertreeservices · Mar 10, 2018

So after loading the 110 with logs today ,1.5 builders bag, driving down the road about two miles heard a not very nice clunk then a bang. and like something flew off. managed to get it back to the yard. once in the yard the noise is now non existent. cant hear it . all ujs have no play in them .sound was coming from rear drivers side. halfshaft?

I've left it in the yard now any help much appreciated.

thank you

To get it back to the yard did it drive normally or did you need to use difflock?

hi flat

Normally drove it back

Jack up axle and then move [waggle] and turn wheels,check for noise and unusual movement.

Normally drove it back,the more I think about it now I'm thinking possible large stone or rock caught in the disc shield ?? Il have to go back down there and have a look

Normally a nagging wife or Whining mother tends to hid most noise from Series to older Defenders models.

Worth checking shock mounts and springs too. Could be a coil broke off a spring

Also rear shock bushes fall off and make horrible noises :/

I think I'm gonna have to hand it to the garage , I would be up to the task but doing it all on the floor I really can't be bothered with anymore , would you say it's diff though ?

It certainly does sound like the diff on the video, but being there you should be able to tell if it's coming from a UJ. There's a hell of a lot of movement there.

Yeah lots of play of some sort ! ujs all seem tight. how long would this take an experienced landy mechanic to sort out? worst case scenario with the diff??

I haven't stripped a diff yet myself. It's not a quick job though. It might depend on the issue, but I think the half shafts will have to be pulled out and so that's also the hubs off. Then there's parts, if it's repairable. I think you'll be looking at a lot of sheckles
