CHEAP front prop of a disco 2 please anyone?
One of this type...
have you tried Britparts yet? do loads of stuff for all landrovers
Good luck trying to find a cheap one, everybody wants them for the double carden joint which is what I guess you want it for

Do you have to use one of these? I have a couple of P38 prop shafts, front and back in my garage if of any use. They just have standard UJ's both ends.
I've got 3 standard props, just thinking of upgrading them for the lift I have on the truck.
I really would not worry.
When I raced a 80" with the engine pushed back I used a classic range rover rear prop as it has very deep yokes and chopped it into a very short
length, on full droop with coil springs and extended shocks it was at horrible angles so relocated the A frame brack on the diff to point the nose up
a little.
The front prop was never a worry as plenty long enough although had to grind the flats on the yokes as they used to rub at the axle end.
Regards Mark
Cheers, front prop is going to be 30 1/2" nice easy gradient down to the axle although the output from the transfer case points up a little bit.
Rear is 19" with the brake drum pointing down slightly and I haven't pinned the A frame yet so I have the nose of the rear diff pointing
straight at the tranny output.
Think I'll get away with standard yokes?
Try Austen (MK9R on here), his Dad does Landie transmissions.
And after much searching I can come to conclusion the double cardon ned flange is too big for my classis range rover.. DOH!
