Braking seems to be normal and there has not been any problems there, only symptoms has been a progressively louder ticking, on a warm engine the ticking is louder than the engine especially on higher rpm. But is it correct to assume that there shouldnt be this kind of ''play'' on the piston

Does anyone know if there is supposed to be this kind of play in the piston of a vacuum pump for a 300tdi. Measurement are taken at the end of the stroke and up to the point where the piston meets the spring tension. This allows for 3 mm of freeplay, im not sure if there is such play when it is...

I finally tracked it down to being the center differential, which was badly worn. And I guess the more direct pulsing waves that comes In 4 gear, must have resonated in the gearbwheels in the diff and transmitted it through the driveshafts.

Further experimentation have helped, but not resolved the problem entirely. I decided to buy some offset bushes for the radius arm, this way i would be able to play with different diff pin angles, by ''simply'' adjusting them (pressing them out and turning them a bit) to see if that would change...

coming back, i still have the vibration, to specify more, i tried removing the front prop shaft and that eliminated the vibration. so definitely a prop/diff/CV vibration ?? i also think the diff nose is a bit high in realtion to the axle, and to my knowledge this could make a horrible vibration...

it also seems that the vibration is only present when driving in 4th or 5th gear at this speed. have already tried removing the front prop and driving with diff lock, this eliminates the vibration. could it be a problem with the tcase differential, maybe output shaft spline wear? when i changed...

Hi,i have a 2 inch lifted, 87 defender 2.5 TD, it was equipped with cranked radius arms 3 degree, possibly slotted swivel house, standard axels plus spacers, and 35 inch tires. after removing lift block from the vehicle and lowering it by 1.5 inch in the front (now down to 2 inch), a vibration...
