think its the transferbox as it doesnt have a neutral so when rear wheels turn so does transfer box.

think your fine if you have a neutral selection tho as only rear prop turns

if your jimny is shaking at 50mph it could be the dreaded 'death wobble'. after much putting up with it and developing/worsening carpal tunnel syndrome in my hand which would starit up when gardening from the extensive vibration from the steering wheel, I eventually found a solution - a steering damper - well worth the cost from I think jimny parts - it did the trick.

you mean it covered up the fault :whistle: knackered king pins are the general cause of deathwobble.

regarding being towed, so if we ever break down we have to be put on a low loader rather than being towed like a normal car?! seems abit excessive.
