Car drove and shifted fine and only happened under the hard load. I very rarely put my foot down so this is the first time I have noticed it. I know there is a common rattle on cold start up but never experienced anything like this when driving. Car has had an easy driving life and 52,xxx km.

I need someone to check it out in person though, pretty hard to diagnose over the net I reckon. I'm wondering about getting tailshaft checked for balance. Diff is also 311,000km old and might not be helping matters... 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/86021-bad-vibrations/page/2/#findComment-1612155 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only started happening in the last 2 weeks but might be getting worse so I'm looking out for it. Should probably take it easy until it can get proper hoist time to be honest. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/86021-bad-vibrations/page/2/#findComment-1612219 Share on other sites More sharing options...
