hello,don`t know if anyone will be able to help me here but running out of ideas.It`s a 95 300tdi discovery when one the motorway she is fine upto 70mph, as soon as you go over that i get a bad vibration and drone which just gets worse the faster you go.I have changed all the wheel bearings and no change was noticed.Please help
 
These vibe issues are a pain in a 4x4, I know you have checked the props but have you tried removing the props one at a time and then lock the transfer box and test drive it? When removing the reap prop you will need to replace the nuts at the handbrake drum with spacers to keep the drum in place. This might help locate the prob i.e. prop.diff. halfshaft ect. Remember halfshafts can be removed from each end to test for bent ones ect.
