AW70 chatter 200 1985

Hi all,

I don't know if this is the correct term but my '85 245 GL, B230F, AW70 'chatters'
under certain conditions, particularly low speed and accelerating and in turns. It seems to be related to the geometry with the rear axle. Also, there are times when the shift becomes jerky and makes a pronounced thud on the upshift.

Tailshaft bushing is relatively new. So are all the drive (propeller)shaft components: U-joint, center bearing, rubber. I'm using HD wagon rear springs, IPD stabilizer bars. Rear suspension bushings are new. A/T mount is new.

Thanks in advance.
