Anyone identify this prop??

I bought this the same time as my axles under the impression it was off a Range Rover Classic.

I've been scouring ebay looking for a back one and seen loads of different Landy props. They all have big hollow tube construction whereas this dude is a solid bar!

Anyone recognise it?

Is that a sliding joint on the righthand end? If so, it could be a Landy prop. I've seen a few pattern LR ones similar to the one you have.

Yes iits the sliding joint. I know its a landrover fitment as it bolts up to my axle and whatnot.
Just not seen a solid bar type one before.

Range rover classic front prop when fitted with a three speed chrysler torque flight box only made them for a couple of years thankfully then went ZF auto.

I had a couple, the highest fuel consumption cars I ever owned, worse than a v12 XJS and slow with it.

Awesome. Where else can you find a response like this from a photo? LCB at its best.

Indeed, nice to invoke such evocative memories there...
