Hawklord Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 (edited) Can someone please offer some guidance regarding a replacement front prop shaft for my 1994 300TDI defender. The original part number FRC8386 seems to have been superseded by TVB100610G but some advertisers state this being a wide angle prop shaft. Are all prop shafts now wide angle for some reason and are they better than non wide angle, I only use my vehicle for road use and occasional dirt track. Also Hardy Spicer seems to now be an Indian company, are these going to be good quality as I can't afford a genuine one (which may also be made in India).

miketomcat Posted May 18, 2023 Share Posted May 18, 2023 Wide angle just means the yoke and UJ are bigger. It does appear that it's difficult to find the original part no part, but the wide angle will do the same job. If you can go for a GKN prop as they are the land rover manufacturer.
