Just a question about Ashcrofts ATB
So I have fitted an ATB to my '98 wagon and twice while going around round a bouts I have got a slight juddering, it feels just like having the center diff locked on a hard surface, is it a trait of the ATB or not normal?, thanks for your time

Where have you fitted it, front, centre, or rear?

My defender doesn't do this (and has all three).

Transfer case, it's only done it twice, I was thinking it could be a uni on the way out but they appear fine.

Well it seems to only do it when I'm turning tightly, I'm going to drop the diff oil and see if anything comes out.

Is there a running in period before you change the oil…….?

Might be worth a check.

Got me stuffed, clean oil without metal came out of the diff's, my uni's are old but none have movement, for some reason it just doesn't feel right.

What did Ashcroft say when you spoke to them ?
