This dont happen at other gear positions, or speeds, only from standstill in 1st gear.Optimum's Jason checked it, mentions that the long shaft bush in the center is at fault. He also wants to change the 2 mounting at the shaft's connection to the gearbox. He says that the mountings have sunk, and is making the long shaft slightly crooked, causing "shakes" too. He quotes RM200++ for parts and labour (i'll budget RM300). He says that the other stuff (arms, bushes) are OK.Anyone had this before?? I read here somewhere that someone had "shakes" , spent some RM18K to change everything, just to discover its something to do with the longshaft!! Cannot afford that lo...  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite9" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":eek:" /> Need some advice here.
