Hi everyone,
after replacing the VCU (brand new GKN) and bearings (brand new GKN too), i tried the free and notice some weird shaking...
so back at the mechanic and we saw that the front propshaft was faulty.
He opened it and noticed one destroy bearing. Lucky am i, that part isn't available alone...
So i need to replace the front propshaft, and i'm confused about the brands and prices...
I know you guys told me that Britpart isn't recommended, but what about Allmakes or Bearmach ? i don't find a GKN one... there is a Hardy Spicer but it's double the price.
Any advice ?
Thanks a lot !

OK, just posted what I used for my 02.
Very good quality kit. Don't be tempted to put a new tripod in the old case, they are made to fit together and the old one will be scored up due to the failure.
 
I believe the tripod joint is the same across the whole production run. So a joint listed for a 2002 model, will also fit a 2006 model.
