T shirt in diff that’s a new one.
You sure previous owner is not in the wheel well abs banging two spanners together every now and again? Searching for my first Defender...and started just as Covid hit, so talk about timing. 5 months after starting the search I found it, and here is the details |

Maybe previous owner got fed up with the clicking & shoved a t shirt in the diff to “fix” it ?

So the tik tik tik noise is gone?
Once heard a guy saying that he stuffs ladies tights into noisy Escort Mk1s diffs to quite things up!!! He said it melts and thickens the oil!!  1988 90 Hard Top, 19J Diesel Turbo, Shire Blue - Restoration ongoing
