Hi Fungi2003,
Yes I do get a slight knock in the drive train but I am not fussed about it as it is Torsen and drive train taking up a little backlash.

In other words its normal?

Hi Fungi2003,

Yes, as long as the levels of noise do not increase appreciably, there are a lot of rotating assemblies under a constant 4WD, drive into an undercover car-park one day with the drivers window down and you will hear what I mean.
Toyota have even gone to the trouble of fitting Attenuation mats (noise dampening) to all the underbody guards/bash plates to limit in cab noise on the 120.
