Default Propshaft?
Now that I've got my engine/box and rear diff all in its quite clear that I need to get the Propshaft altered to suit
Is there anyone on here who can shorten it for me or will i have to go to a specialist

Regards
Steve

I got mine made by dunning and fairbank.
It cost about £160 but I didn't really want something spinning at 4500rpm inches from my legs that hadn't been professionally made.

I used them as well but the bill was a lot less, hmmm £110 seems to be the amount. I sent them an MX5 prop and they made it into a shortened shaft with MX5 gearbox to Sierra diff
