Retroanaconda Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Yep, he didn't seem to think it was indicative of an issue being present. It's more likely down to my misplaced assumption that they wouldn't require as much maintenance due to being heavy duty. In fact of course they require just as much greasing as regular props, and their benefits are elsewhere as posted above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve200TDi Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Thank you for your reply's. I may think about some fancy wide angle propshafts. Has anyone had any good experiences with standard propshafts from the likes of e.g. Britpart, Bearmach, Genuine, etc...... I'll have to make a concious effort to grease more regularly! Sometimes it doesn't help when your grease gun doesn't fit due to the nipple not being in the centre between the two halves! Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokinv8 Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Without regular greasing though, then I guess any joint can run dry and then heat up destroying itself whether it's heavy duty or not. Not always easy though when you use the vehicle daily as you do James. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
