Rear prop shaft?

Disco_Stu:
The proper UJ from the 200tdi is a better bit of kit IMHO than the Rotoflex coupling on the 300tdi.

I have just changed mine when I did an axle swap. I have definitely seen a thread with pictures of the job being done and instructions on making a puller.

Suggest doing a search for diff flange or similar.

skiprat:
hi guys,

thanks for your replys, i think that modification might have to wait a while.

so a new doughnut it is....But does any one know if there is an uprated one available anywhere that might have a bit better life expectancy???

i would imagine its possible to make them tougher, like with uprated bushes....Polybush etc.

Jake:
I'm not aware of an upgraded version doughtnut tbh, but i could be wrong
Just make sure when you fit your new one, you fit it the right way round.
(there are arrows on the doughnut deplicting the direction of the bolts)

KingWolf:
What would happen if you fitted it the wrong way round? When I did mine earlier in the year I never noticed any marking so just slapped it on.

Range Rover Blues:
Just buy the propper GKN one, not a Britpart, soirry but mine ate that within the year.  Mind you I took it to Propshaft Technology in Rotherham (thanks Bulli) and they fitted a new inner support bush too, worth doing.
