Just sharing with you my double cardon prop

When I first got my Land rover I saided to myself I'll be doing as much as I can on the repairs & maintance.
So after I lifted my 90, mine was one of those that needed a bit more than just lifting .
I was getting load's of vibration at about 55mph. So after a bit of seaching I found this web site.

I know you can use a D2 front prop as well but I like to be awkward.

I then found a double cardan off a 110 salibury axle on eblag for £80.00.
FRC9762 & the bloke is still selling them at the moment.

I then got one of the boys in the machineshop at work to turn me up a spacer to fit to the transfer box (mine is on the front & not the back like in the web site).
I also had to make a spacer for the diff end as mine was a TD.

The TD needs to be a lot longer (685mm) than a 300tdi or TD5.
I think you might be able to get away with the length on a 300 or TD5, as I think they are about 600mm, but don't take my word for it.

I've just been out for a test drive & no more vibration .

if your sharing it ? when can i lend it ? nxt wkd ok ? some nice machine work there.

Interesting, someone could make a tidy penny making those up

Dare i ask, are they're any detail drawings with dimensions for them?

I've rough sketckes, with sizes. Oh ya & one that just needs the holes drilled & milled.
Funny I was thinking the same thing, just to get the money back on the metal I bought, I mean the company bought.

Do you have a link for the double cardon unit?

you can fit disco 2 front flange as straight swap to t/box

You can just fit a D2 prop & flange but because mine has to be longer, you'll still have to make a spacer of some kind.
As I put in my 1st post you'll have to look at what set up you have (engine, chassis & gearbox).
I don't want people just bolting on a prop & finding it's to short.

Props

Have a look on the gwyn lewis web site for the lengths you're going to need.

I've just had a look on eblag & I can't see any listed at the moment. Just put in "Land rover propshaft".

I've just found a link on the D2 prop
