Porny Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 Front Prop - Part Number TVB100610 for the correct wide angle jobbie... With a bit of forum discount... Allmakes Own Brand - £65.57 + vat (which actually aren't bad at all!!) Hardy Spicer - £102.30 + vat (OEM) Genuine Part - £260 ish + vat Postage would be £6.00 Could have one by Weds - and do your ECU at the same time Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant. Posted March 10, 2009 Author Share Posted March 10, 2009 lol looks like it did stretch, i never found the other piece, its somewhere probably in the central reservation of the A41 however a new tunnel and drivers side floor panel might not go a miss sometime now as well.... Thanks guys Grant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparg Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 mine on td5 defender is just about ready to fly apart, with about 1/2 inch of play in the back UJ of the front prop. The repair manuel says " to ensure correct assembly and reduce possibility of imbalance, before removing propeller shaft joint mark position of spider pin relative to journal yoke ears" .........this question of marking and stuff - is it less of a problem if you're fitting a whole prop?

The repair manuel says Sparq, wouldn't it be better to ask Mr. Fawlty ? Mo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porny Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 'the correct wide angle jobby - is that for a lifted vehicle? - if not lifted, will 'ordinary' prop do, and is that cheaper? All post 2002 Td5 Defenders were fitted with the wide angle prop - complete with later UJ's - Land Rover in there wisdom obviously saw a reason to do so (also helpful with regards to increased axle articulation). FRC8386 is the none wide angle yoke (fitted as standard to all 300tdi and early Td5's) - they are £86.70 + vat for Hardy Spicer, or £66.46 for an Allmakes version. Both plus postage. I can also get wide angle props for 200Tdi's..... Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T1G UP Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 I'll have a price on the wide angled TD5 prop. the 3 links killing mine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
white90 Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Marcus you probably already have what Ian is describing. TD5s have the large wide angle as standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rick Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Easy way to check If the t/case end front uni is bigger than the ones used in the rear driveshaft (prop) or the diff end of the front one, you have a wide angle one. If it's the same size as the rear uni's it obviously isn't a wide angle one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
