miketomcat Posted April 2, 2018 Author Share Posted April 2, 2018 Having driven 45 it judders at low speed especially when coming to a stop . I've jacked up each wheel and spun it. There doesn't seem to be any tight spots or noise. The only thing I can find is if I spin the front prop I can feel a slight snagging through the hand brake drum even with the t box in neutral. If I remember correctly the output bearings can be changed in situ but I'm concerned this maybe a waste of time. Looks like a replacement t box is on the cards. Oh joy I haven't done any spannering for at least 2 days. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roverdrive Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Sounds like the handbrake wants adjusting. Dragging shoes can cause vibration coming to a stop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miketomcat Posted April 2, 2018 Author Share Posted April 2, 2018 (edited) I don't think it is as it spun freely when I had a wheel lifted but I will check. Mike The way my luck has been running recently I'm thinking a collapsed bearing. Edited April 2, 2018 by miketomcat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve b Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 classic symptoms of HB issues - jammed expander, oil on shoes , clips and springs off or even a broken lining . cheers Steve b Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Poore Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 For the sake of it Mike, probably worth detaching the rear prop and knocking the tbox into neutral and spinning the drum by hand. Equally you could just drop the plate off the bottom and wiggle bits inside. Having just done that I had kaput bearings so got a replacement from Ashcrofts.
