Guys,
I manage to damage bend this part as the rear of my 2015 SWB gearbox, presumably there to protect the prop shaft and also acts as damper for vibrations.
My question is basically can I hammer it back to its original position since it is held in place with 2 14mm nuts and easy to take off. I actually took it off yesterday, turned it around but then the vibrations only gets worse. Presently there is a slight vibration on the vehicle thus I presume this part is the culprit. There is no damage to the prop shaft not any other component.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Johan
You can maybe get a propshaft place to check and rebalance the propshaft as it might have been knocked out of balance.
That dampener/mounting point I will just fix with a Landy repair tool ie 10pound hammer. Preferably before the shaft rebalance.

beware of the teflon bush A wearing away; that causes vibration which in turn stresses your universals
Thanks Guys,
Had that particular part bended as per specification although it took a 20 ton press to get is straitened again.
Hopefully the SWB ids back to normal since it feel okay, sommer had all the wheels re-balanced again thus I am ready for the next obstacle.
What however is to mayor concern to me is the availability of spares for these vehicles, been waiting for 4 weeks now for the clamp that holds the CV boot in place close the rear diff.
Not the Dealership fault, Mitsubishi themselves are to blame!
