Looks like that one has been answered, my prop was a heavy duty version so it cost a bit more, about £120 delivered, it was sent overnight courier!

For info it was:

700 mm L x 50.8 mm Dia Propshaft, 35 mm dia x 25 Teeth Sleeve, 4 Bolt flange

I am sure they will help you out,

Daz,

Sorry we where not it, usually close up at 3.30 and been away for a few weekends, when its a nice day give me a shout and we will make sure we are in. Not long until we can get a picture of then side by side!

Thanks for the detailed info !
I believe that you using a T9 gearbox. Mine is a MT75, will that make any difference ? The original prop i got was a two piece shaft. Do i have to use a piece from the old one ? Does the new one comes also in two pieces ?

Regards,

Wim

Wim,

Below is a picture of the prop I got from NWP. If you tell them what gearbox & diff you are using, and the distance from the diff flange face to gearbox oil seal and they do the rest.

As said before made and delivered within 24 hrs. Quality product & price.
Prop is one piece with two UJ's.

Thanx,
