I need a propshaft to connect type 9 gearbox to sierra diff, engine will put out about 170 bhp. Can anyone recommend a propshaft manufacturer?
Cheers

Bailey Morris?
Dunning and Fairbank - very quick, good price and quality
Not very close but I had a custom one made at Prop Tech Ltd in Kidderminster for my RX7/LS1 combo. I've used them before because all the Raw Eng. props are made there.
how long a prop do you need, i have one left over in my garage from my engine swap that i want to get rid of, only done 800 miles made by D and F
i can measure it tonight

I need 645mm from prop flange to gearbox oil seal. Don't know how that translates to overall length, but I'd be interested to see what
you've got, and how much you'd like for it!
Cheers
i got one done by Prop Tech all the wanted was the length from flange to gearbox end and they sent it about a week later and it was perfect fit and very good quality
I got a brand new one from Bailey Morris with sealed, heavy duty U/J's. Excellent quality £150 all in. As above, all they needed was
measurement from Flange face to G/box oil seal. The standard seems to be for them to then allow approx 25mm shaft clearance on the splines to allow
for movement.
HTH,

Another vote for Bailey Morris.
Been to their works at St Neots on the A1. They do nothing but propshafts.
Cartainly had no probelms with mine on the V8 Viento.
just measured prop and its only good for 750mm so too long a afraid

I just ordered a new propshaft from them today to do a gearbox change.
They charged £95 plus vat and do a 24hr turn round. It will be all new, painted and balanced, 1140 series UJ's* (rated for continuous 400Nm or
50% possible overload to 600Nm), ford rocket spline to english axle flange.
*Bigger UJ's would be more expensive; 1300 series are rated for 556Nm continuous and 1000Nm max possible, but are bulkier and might not fit the
tunnel.
I'll collect mine in person but they'd ship it.
They made my current one too (in 2001), It only cost £47 total because I supplied the ends, which they refurbished. I ordered that one on a
Thursday, collected it on Friday afternoon and fitted it the same evening.
