Driveline Vibration

[M32H32IS]

Did you ever get this resolved? I have something very similar. Vibration on acceleration, especially when slowly accelerating up hills. I will have to look for the damper as described on this thread. I just yesterday replaced the rear drive shaft and that did not resolve and recently replaced the lower control arms, it persists. I definitely feels like its coming from the front. Curious if you solved your issue.

I’ve got a new front driveshaft (JLR Branded) waiting to be installed and I firmly believe it’ll resolve the issue.

Also have a JXB carrier waiting to install.

I’ll report back once they’re installed.

Thanks for the response, I sat on this for a long time. I’m in the same position, I have the front shaft and need to get it installed. I’m struggling to find any write ups on doing the front shaft. Lots on the rear and many YouTube videos of people calling a CV Axle a drive shaft. If you did yours and you have any tips let me know.

Hey were you able to fix this? Going through a similar issue now.

Driveline installed, it was time consuming but easy. I struggled getting the crossmember loose. I replaced both drivelines and it turns out what I’m feeling is the transmission, likely the torque converter.

I did a bunch of research here and have long term plans but just posted this: https://www.landroverworld.org/thre...rpm-fluctuation-and-trans-shudder-gone.45995/

Is there an update from @M32H32IS ?

I am wondering if the problem was in fact the drive line (carrier bearing) and if replacing the prop shafts did the trick.

I am not replacing the prop shafts as a part of my rebuild...but don't have a good sense how long the prop shafts last.

Front driveshaft was my issue. Picked up a salvage unit and installed it to solve the problem. Still haven’t installed JXB carrier bearing - low on priority list BC this thing doesn’t really get driven a lot anymore.
