I have a wobble - Not me you understand but from my 3500 P6 which shakes at about 50-55. Between me and my brother we have checked about everything, tyres, prop, UJ's on the drive shafts. All at the rear seems good.
I got the car well elevated last weekend and started to move forward. Upon reaching the rear gearbox mount I established that this looks to be knackered (technical term). There is loads of movement and this allows the front of the shaft to move, I and am guessing (and Hoping) that this is causing my wobble.
Having contacted Wins the tell me they don't list it. Mine is a 1971 with a BW35 box. Wadham's do, but Wins tell me it is an offset bush, but mine seems not to be? It looks like a standard type of bush in an aluminium housing although there is quite a bit of movement so it could be that the wear has removed any ofset. The picture of the Wadham's one shows quite a big offset though.
So I am confused :? Are there two types for the BW35?? If so, how do I establish which I need and could the wrong one have been fitted in the dim and distant :?:
