strange noise and vibration

[whits]

whilst laning a few weeks go i had a odd thing happen, whilst driving about 30mph ish a odd noise like a tyre rubbing on body work but it isnt, also a vibration through the steering wheel, only happened for about half a second then stopped then 2 mins later same again, and 15 mins etc etc, so i stopped jacked it up but couldnt find anything other than a very small amount of play in o/s/f baring.
drove home fairly steady and it didnt happen, but today it came back same as before but i could fee it through the floor aswell, only did it twice about half a second each time and about 10 mins apart, have adjusted both barings and checked swivels etc but cant find anything wrong.
also checked front prop all fine,
has anyone else had this and what did you do to cure it.
could it be p.s. pump wearing out
cheers in advance

I have a similar problem - big vibrations at about 40 mph, but only occasionally.

The props are all fine, there's no wheel bearing play. I'm lost.

hi dennis
thanks for the reply, i greased the front prop a few days before i went offroading, cant feel any movement when swinging off it when fitted but will take it of this week and check it properly, and let you know
thanks mark

My Disco TD5 has a UJ on its way out and I get a strange vibration at the 40 - 60 mph range. If I try to wiggle the propshaft there is no play but on inspecting the UJ's there is one that is showing signs of serious wear
