Jack under gear box then undo the 4 bolts holding the cross member thing then you can get to the mount.

easy job no need to take prop off

There are 2 different types of mount a square rubber one or a round bolt type.

I have a new round one in box if need as i brought the wrong one

pm if needed

This maybe stating the obvious, but have you checked that the U/j's are Ok and free moving. I have know U/J's to partially seize, off centre, and that will give you a vibration

Sorry for the delayed reply - called away on family business...

Took the prop out today. The UJs seem smooth but when I took the caps off of the rear UJ one bearing has a roller missing

which doesn't seem too good.

I'll need to remove one side of the exhaust to get the transmission mount off but I moved the mounting bracket down and the rubber mount looks ok.

Next steps - Get prop checked as its already out. Get new UJ.
