again how would i be able to see if its the cv joint? is it easy to spot?

is there a test to know if its a cv joint thats the problem? what should i be looking for?

so would the drive shaft only make this noise in 4 wheel drive (with prop shaft and vc)? because there is no noise in 2 wheel drive?

had a garage to have a look and they said ( not land rover specialist) the front diff mount needs replacing so they did that, put the prop and vc back on lad drove it off the ramp and the noise is still there. but he reakons its coming from the front drive shaft ????? im gonna cry what could it...

cheers for the advice really appreciate it. ive taken the prop shaft and viscous coupling off as i was going to drive it for work in 2 wheel drive but when i get a spare hour ill fit it back on and try your advice. is there any tests you can do with the prop and vc off?

i wasnt really doing any speed just taking my time reversing as i had just put everything back together reversed about 2m and heard the first knock so stopped reversed again prob same distance and heard for a second time. pulled back onto drive and no knocks at all.
