Without going for the specific one which is going to be mega bucks, you best bet is going to a custom place. Somewhere like Bailey Morris Propshafts.
As above, have you got the Salisbury panhard rod? As they are different.

I'd suggest posting up pictures of exactly what you've got as a salisbury front would be a rare beastie.

There's at least one thread in the Technical Archive section on stock propshaft lengths & part numbers.
I decided to put it on as its a chunky good axle and my baby deserves the best Im trying to find a fit

My guess would be that one axle has the old long nose Rover diff, the other has the newer short nose Rover diff, possibly a mod, as I thought those were only installed on the rear axles of 110s and 130s (in Defender applications).
Mine at present has the rover diff but the new one I have is a salisbury for sure bought from Mod

Are you saying you have a Salisbury front axle/diff or a Rover one?
A Salisbury front axle will need a shorter prop as the differential nose is longer. Not 60cm shorter though, do you mean 60mm perhaps?
As you can tell im a novice . Yes it has a rover one and I have a rebuilt Salisbury fully loaded I bought from the army so apart from a shorter prop are there any other issues. And how long would the prop be? thanks for your help
