Ok, so I have had this problem ever sence I got the car, but it used to come and go and would only do it once in a blue moon, then last 4wd trip the diff droped down as a bolt had come loose, and then my troubles started,

managed to boggy the car up enough to get her home, then fixed her properly with a new bolt and tightened up the rest,

Sence then I have had this annoy vibration comming from both sides of my car, it seems to be comming from the birfields, there is a little movement in the cvs when the car is stopped 2-4mm,

So i did the obvious and replaced the cvs with brand newies, and still same problem, although it went away for a day 1st,
So i swapped them from side to side, and same problem was there,

removed the front driveshaft and issue was still there,

The car is a 1994 Toyota Surf it has the A D D system in it,

And has a 2inch suspension lift, so nothing major.

Any ideas greatly appreciated.

Thankyou

James

Ok so got cover the week and had a good look around and thought maybe a little grease is all that it needs,
After trying for a few hrs I gave up and made a little tool to screw onto the spindle but with a grease nipple on it and away I went, as it turns out I was bang on the money and it as almost gotten rid of the noise and vibration,
This is just a temporary fix until I can replace the bushings, but I am going to add greasing these spindles into my Maintenence routine, it's not really hard to do just pull the wheel of and a spindle but the cv washer thingo pull the cv towards the diff a little, screw this tool on and pump until the greae comes through the other end.

Your an ideas man James,
