Xfer box

Good day all

Please help. I love my Disco, but tired of the wine.
It is a 1996 V8i

My Xfer box makes a high pitch noise when I get to 90km/h and silences again at 110km/h. Is this common?
I have replaced the oil in the box with thicker oil and replaced all the bearings as well as sand blasted all the gears and it still does it under load only.

Thanks:doh:

if you want i got a used one ere i can send,1.222 ratio tran box lt77 fit 175 delivered.pm me if ya want it.

FFS spambob squarepants is at it again. A bit of whining never did anyone any harm I'd rather listen to a transfer box than the missus anyday.

....have been known to chew occasionally tho....

If you had a diesel you wouldn't be able to hear the whine so there's the solution.

Well with a diesel you also have no power. I have a good sub and amp that takes away the whine, problem no one can talk.
No oil addetives or something ?

They can have a tendency to whine however, try swapping your tyres around I have often found the wear pattern can set up a whine at certain speeds. Differentials can aso whine with the sound travelling up the props confusing it's origin, you could try running around with one of the propshafts off and see if there is any difference in the sound and the swap in/out the other shaft. Other than that check the levels and leave it well alone.

The wine has been proven from the Xfer box in High range only. I have replaced all bearings, sand blasted all gears and replaced with thicker oil.
