no the one that came out was a skf 6207 expedition the one I am going to replace it with is a c3 as this has more radial play so hopefully have less load and a longer life .(or so Iv'e been told)

hi there
sorry about hi jacking this topic but I have been chasing a vibration on my td5 110 since I had the gearbox repaired and the internals of a disco 1-1.22 transfer box fitted to my original transfer box at the same time I fitted a x brake which seems to amplify the vibration in to a knocking noise, I would be interested in knowing what your symptoms are i.e when the vibration is noticeable cheers kevin |

first sorry for late reply .OK after getting stuck and rocking the defender out I had what seamed to be a prop u.j.vibrating any way after a long search it was a bent output shaft NOT LIKE A BANANA BUT RUNNING OUT WHEN MEASURED ON A LATH and rough bearing .so replaced the shaft and to be honest put a cheap bearing in .the bearing had to be replaced after approx. 5000 mls so replaced with a SKF bearing this has lasted longer now I suspect I have a fault in the transfer box that is putting pressure on the output shaft bearing so have decided to try a bearing with a little more radial clearance (play) than the original spec don't want to strip transfer box as it works fine at the moment. The symptoms are rough vibration at 40-45 when accelerating hard or slight vibration when driven as I normally do like an old lady
 .
Hope this has helped with diagnosis . |

hi hilly
thanks for the reply my vibration was initially apparent when accelerating, but now is noticeable at idle even when out off gear so deep down I suspect its the dmf but I'm still hope I can find something less painfull to repair cheers kevin |

Check the crank pulley as these can cause a bad vibration. Does the engine make a chirp noise when you switch the ignition off? Ray

hi ray
thanks for the input I had heard that crank pulleys were prone to fail , there is no obvious signs of failure on mine but there is a definite vibration on the engine which cause the engine top cover to rattle, but I don't think it would be noticeable if I hadn't fitted the x brake ! think I'll have to let it develop ! cheers kevin |
