Title: 'Cattle Grid' Vibration
Post by dinodelta on May 10^th, 2006, 12:07pm

I have read a few posts about this but when I searched the site, I couldn't find them. So sorry about starting another thread on it :-*

Anyway, I noticed on the Ford technical bulletin 176/1996, that not only must the prop shaft be relocated in its original position, the bolts must go back into the same hole, as well.

This is because the prop shaft is balanced by using different length bolts (and therefore the bolts are heavier or lighter).

Hope this helps someone!
