SiWhite Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Hi guys, The rear propshaft on the 90 has given up the ghost. I could just get a straight replacement - it's a Tdi mounted to a LT77. Would a TD5 shaft fit? I have heard that they offer a bit more movement on the UJs before they bind. And would there be any benifit in fitting a double cardon shaft?

BogMonster Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 I guess a Td5 one would fit as long as the engine is mounted in the same place as a 300Tdi/R380 would be - which is different to where a 200Tdi/LT77 is normally mounted. The front Td5 shafts have bigger UJ's which may have a better amount of movement (don't know) but as far as I know the back propshafts are exactly the same as a 300Tdi back propshaft. Quite why the front was upgraded and not the back is one of those things that obviously made sense to somebody at LR at the time.....

BogMonster Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 I realised I had posted on the wrong one when I read the second one and thought "hmm this question seems familiar" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
