I've had a similer problem,and it was the chain in the transfer box.Changed it and no probs now

just a note about the front prop hitting the downpipe, if you have not heard it before, you would swear that the engine was gonna drop out and the whole exhaust system come off under you , with a stainles pipe it seems to amplify the noise 100 fold, then you get underneath expecting a huge rip in the side of it, and there is a mark just skimmed smaller than the size of you rlittle finger nail on a bit of the downpie you cant even see , its like a loud metallic clanking sound

well if i move the front prop with my hand is does sound a bit noisey prob could be the transfer box chain is this hard to do??

Dave Henshall

there is always a bit of backlash in the front prop that doesnt sound too clever,
