Front End Vibration

[MudDonk]

Howdy All,

I have got a big vibration in front end when am engaged in 4x4, it feels like axle tramp/bounce, it is not consistent comes and goes but seems to be when I am in soft ground or when it is working hard.

any ideas on a diagnosis would b great cheers all

You may have lost your wheel weights, Also jack your 4x4 up asap and check that your wheels are tight, common on GUs

I have the same thing happen and sand but only on the lifted patrol the gu has no issues. It may just be those nice slinky springs you have in there.

Are your shocks leaking and your only using springs, Patrol when pushed down by hand at front should return to top and stop.
Not continue bouncing
