Marco - not when going over bumps - just on puling away. George - Thanks for sound advice. Darren -Yes, I think all items noted do need checking before I commit to CVs Thanks again all for contributions Ernest

Thanks all for the helpful advice - some thing to check. What is the general view of changing to c.v. drive shafts - I prefer original if possible. Mind you I do have some polybush, a Bosch fuel pump and electronic ignition, so not all standard! Best wishes and thanks Ernes

The mounting bushes have just (about 20 miles ago) been renewed with polybush - Bluestone Best Wishes Ernest

Thanks both for contributions Standard steel wheels RobH. And, as noted Keith, the diff. has just been removed and refitted by what I think is a very reputable TR garage (Rees Bros.) - used polybush on the refit. Best Wishes Ernest

Hi All As ever, ongoing issues with the lovely 6. This time its a clunking noise when I pull away. I have just had the differential overhauled and was hoping that this might sort the problem. I was thinking it might be drive shaft-related and that it was perhaps time to fit the newer c.v. ones. Any ideas? Ernest

Thanks Paul - lovely and informative video Best Wishes Ernest

Thanks Roger and Stuart for your reassuring comments and Blue TR3A 5EKT for the offer of NOS - It looks like polybush for my 6. Best Wishes Ernest

Hi all I am considering replacing all bushes - would polybush rather than originals make a lot of difference to the drivability and, if fitted, will polybush change the 'stance' of the car? I have noticed that quite few 6s (and indeed 5s) seem to sit rather high, with a significant gap between top of the tyre and edge of wing. Perhaps this is more rated to the shocks? The cost of making this change is quite high so I want to be aware of outcome before getting the work done. Any advice would be appreciated. Ernest
