driving with one prop

<< < (2/2)

AbyssDJ:
a quick test will tell you. i wouldnt drive too far on one prop if you can help it, as it just puts more strain on one prop/diff/axle rather than dividing it over the two of them.

dont nail it though, be gentle pulling off etc otherwise you'll risk doing the UJ's over on the prop thats still fitted!

TDi90:
a mate of mine drove from mid wales back to hampshire (about 4 and a half hours) on only one prop with diff lock in. no probs.

Rich_P:
Or if you have a Rover diff on the rear axle, you can blow them if you floor it too much with the rear prop just fitted...  Of course, the diff probably would take it when new but how many are in superb condition now anyway?
