My Christmas To Do List !
With some time off at Christmas I plan to do some work on Tank.

When I change gear and let the clutch out there seems to be some slack in the drive train. I am not sure if this is normal for a TD5 and wondered if changing some of the bushes, Censored if I know which ones, might improve this ?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Cheers

Dunk

Connects to the middle of the rear axle with 2 arms onto the chassis. The ball joint is the bit that bolts onto the axle 2008 Defender 110 XS SW - M57N2 / 8HP70X

Worn drive flanges cause quite a lot of drive train clunk and reasonably cheap to replace.
