Welp i found the cause of the vibration in my disco i think...
i can move the front output flange on the transfercase about .25mm in any direction...up down and around [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif[/img]
i can hear my wallet screaming...
whats a reco'ed transfercase worth in this day and age?
or a good second hand one?
how big a drama is it to do this bearing?
there goes my trip to sydney and a few other things to boot i think...
bugger!

Sure the front driving flange aint just loose ? In which case pack behind the nut with suitable washer then 'reef' nut up tight again.
The procedure for the bearing replacement I would guess be something along the lines of put the transfer into locked low with the handbrake on and gearbox in Park. Undo the driving flanges bolts, remove front drive, undo the driving flange nut, flange should now pull out leaving the the oil seal. Pry out the oil seal, if you can do it without damaging you're better than me at them, the bearing should be sitting in there held by a circlip. Remove with your circlip pliars and withdraw bearing.
Rush to the telephone and order a new oil seal $5.00 and front bearing $12.50 from FWD in Vic. When parts arrive reinstall parts in reverse order subsituting replacements for worn/damaged.
Hook into it should take half a day if parts are there already.

SubscriberI'll put a stamp on it and off it goes 8) . Just make sure your mail box has an adequate size. Just wondering how the poor postie on his red Honda will be coping with the excess load...
The trip back was a bit challenging. I'd rather drive in a Series Landy to Cape York than going on a long haul flight on a 747 in Economy class.

You can change the front bearing in situe. take of the flange and you can remove the circlip and hook the bearing out, or you can use the shaft to pull the bearing, but careful the diff lock selector doesn't drop. Easy job, I think there may be pictures of how to do it on Discoweb.org . Slide hammer is needed. They normally have some movement in the front shaft.

does anyone know how much movement is usual?
i can rattle mine, if i move it up and down quickly you can hear it knock...
btw it is the bearing not a loose flange.
surely this cannot be normal... ??
to my mind that much slop would have an affect further back into the box surely...
the seal isnt leaking....
am going to have to get m & r or british off road to have a look and confirm i think... as it willplay on my mind [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif[/img]

Admittedly different transfer case setup but my front drive at the same point doesn't move in any direction apart from spins.
The seal may not be leaking now but it could be working to grooving the driving flange. Best get it looked at.
Interesting the bearing needs to be driven out.
