Transmission
Support Insulator

Flack

Is it easy to swap ?
Looks like unbolt prop from each end ?
Bearing (will it pull off ) will I need a press to get it back on ?

This I think is the part I need

Yes easy job prop off and then knock the old off ..


Flack

If its the centre carrier bearing then it can be changed but it is a ball ache to do. Complete prop is £225 new from LR and will also replace the worn universal joints you will have  2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀

Thanks

Looks like I will be working my way from the front to the back replacing all things rubber mounted

Lower arms /steering arms /ball joints and droplinks all in the garage ready to be fitted

Must get a new 24 pack of WD40

I need the propshaft looked at on a different car and was recommended Dave Mac Propshafts in Coventry by a reliable in trade source. Not actually used them yet, but will be popping over as soon as this set of shifts end.

Can you drive the car with no prop ?

Er.... That will be a No! on the silly scale for the transfer box to work it needs resistance from both front and rear. If you removed prop, the box will go into effective neutral.  2x TDV6. SE and HSE. Both returned to sender with issues👀

Was just thinking if I needed to go and get fags / beer if it was not going well lol

Well my part come
So I got started and got the first 6 bolts out at the front in seconds easy
But only got one of the rear 4 bolts out as I did not have good Access or room on the floor so it's all bolted back up till the weekend

Q / is there a way to rotate the prop to make life easier and get better access to the bolts
Or can I just remove the front part of the prop if so how as had it all lose but not apart
