latest disco pics

finally finished the 6" lift to give my 37s a bit more room.
pictured it nxt to my mates td5

Any shots of the underneath? It would be interesting to see how you've done it.

Aha, I see, it all adds up. When you say spring lift, that's spacers, is it?

Are you double cardoned?

yeh spring spacers..
double cardon props arnt suited to lifted motors theres wide angle props on this

That's awesome like it

all your doing is adding more ujs and not really allowing a wider angle of articulation

all your doing is adding more ujs and not really allowing a wider angle of articulation??

Wiltshire Landyman.......am bit confused by your answer? My understanding of UJs is they allow a change of direction for the force/rotation, how can adding an extra one not give extra articulation....I thought that's what Double Cardon was for (when WA just isn't enough?)
Not meaning to be rude, just after clarification

.A prop with wide angle yokes simply has a single joint, but with wider yokes that can go to larger angles before binding. It'll handle more axle travel without damage, but won't help with vibration.

A double cardan joint is more or less two UJs in one unit. It's arranged that the joints are always at the same angle, and so immediately allows twice the angle that either of the joints on it's own could do. But, because the two joints are always at the same angle, the only bit subject to angular vibration is the shared central part - the rotational variations should cancel out, and it should act as a CV joint. I've seen them used (exposed) in the front hubs of 4WD tractors, and I think they are used on some Land Rovers (Disco II front axle ?).and with the 37s the last thing I want is more standard ujs..standard ujs are around £4 each the wide angles I have are £32 each..

could have bloody washed it...
