range rover classic 2.5tdi automatic

when am in low going up hills when a start giving it power am getting a crunch and banging noise does it more in low than in hi can be driving off a roundabout and give it power does the same when power is reduced its fine

was speaking to someone and said it could be the shaft from the gearbox to transfer box slipping due to wear anyone had a similar problem as not looking forward to takeing gearbox out

would a be able to just take transfer box of to inspect the shaft from gearbox  ?

thanks jamie

Before getting to the gearbox/transfer box,
Have you checked fully that the UJ's are all ok on the prop shafts?

george

have checked them all seem to be ok it drives fine until its got power through it worse when in low box off road seems to do it more 

thanks  jamie

Take the pto cover off the back of the trans box and see what you find.

so once a take the pto cover off if theres any ware to the shaft should it be visible ie metal shavings ? this is all new to me hope am not asking to many questions 

thanks  jamie

so went to see where the pto cover was and came across this ?





could this be my problem looks like there is bearings missing and also has some play

thanks  jamie
