ThreePointFive Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Good day all, I know everyone loves to see when a big heavy bit goes wrong. Here's a big heavy bit that nearly went very wrong.... I haven't seen one go like this before, it's totally gacked the yoke and it can't be manipulated by hand any more. How I got home on it, I don't know. Obviously it had to destroy the expensive end - the prop. LR don't sell the UJs separately (not that it would do any good to fit one into that yoke) and a new prop is £350. There are some cheaper on LR Direct, so I'll have to bite the bullet on this one. Scary thing is, I'd just done 400 miles on the motorway, there was no indication of any issue - in fact it was running as well as it ever had. Vehicle is a 2002 TD5 manual.

Orgasmic Farmer Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Sam. I have a brand new one in the shed (not sure of make). I was planning to fit one day to the 110 but guess I won't ever get around to changing the flanges etc. How much are the LR direct ones?

ThreePointFive Posted May 20, 2015 Author Share Posted May 20, 2015 Hi Mark £178.02 inc VAT is the only one for TVB000100 (TD5 manual) but it's Britpart... I doubt you'd buy BP so could be worth a lot more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reb78 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Worth a look here perhaps http://www.driveshaftparts.co.uk/index.php?route=product/product&path=60_608&product_id=285 A few folks on the d2boysclub forum have them and are happy with them.

Landy-Novice Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 One we had in work. Although pic doesn't show it, it punctured a hole in chassis. But after all. It had 285,000 miles. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orgasmic Farmer Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 Will check it tomorrow Sam. I have a feeling it is a Bearmach one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ally V8 Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 The UJ's are available from LR - they are the same as the uj on the other end of the shaft,but with a damaged yoke they are not much good to you... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orgasmic Farmer Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Hi Sam I did check that one I have but it is a Britpart. Guess it is of no interest to you in that case. I could send it for £100 if it helps though. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
