Default Prop Shaft Question

Hi Guys,

Seem to have an issue where the prop shaft is to long.

it currently measures 811 mm from tip to tip.
Its on a Type 9 Transmission and Sierra diff.

Are there shorter ones?


Cheers!

Get one professionally made/shortened.
Where are you,Dunning and Fairbank or Drivelink in the north east can do them,critical part so possibly don't be tempted to try yourself.

I used dunning and fairbank, first class service and product, all done over the phone and posted out in about a week and a half as it was a busy period for them.
