        i think i have a loose anti roll bar but not had a look yet - that would be my best bet.

          grab hold of the a/r/bar and see if you can easily move it about

              yea.you will see the 2 brackets where the bushes are but give the bolts a good dose of wd40 or something as they can snap off.you can get the bushes from milners.If all goes smoothly 10 minuits

                        the smaller skid plate on mine needed bending down a bit because it was rattelling against that box thingy, it sounded like the exahst was going to drop off on initial start up.
                        When the engin was warm and in nutral the vibrations made it sound as if there was a gearbox problem.
                        i cut a piece of rubber off an old tyre (about 2"x4" and slid that in the gap)

                            Worn bronze bushes in the wheel hub?

                            Where in Warks are you? If it's local I could take a look.
