Later type prop shaft required

Post by RMC&P »

Hi all.
Does anyone, preferably in the East Anglia, have a decent later type propshaft they would be willing to sell? We bought Dora, a 1968 traveller, a month back, and were somewhat coned. I have changed the brand-new clutch she had had fitted, for one that I didn't damage whilst fitting. This has halved the pedal pressure, removed a massive vibration at 50 mph and made the clutch bite less switch like. Unfortunately, I also changed a UJ with very slight play, the yokes had been hammered, until the areas around the circlips were oval. Pushing the old cups out, removed quite a lot of metal and I assume unbalanced it, as there is now, a different lighter vibration at anything over 15 mph. Thank you.

Or take your propshaft to a specialist and they could rebalance it for you?
