HELP! Need to put Disco back together, think prop is wrong..

<< < (2/3) > >>

Wanderer:
It does matter quite a bit. They are done that way on purpose.
If you do it properly then you can't get it wrong.

There is a small raised dimple on the yoke of the UJ.
Looking at the splines on the propshaft there's one of the splines missing.
Line up the missing spline with the raised dimple on the yoke.
The two pieces then should slide together easily.

It is in the right position.

If it is difficult to slide in then you have either got damage to the "plastic coating" or the splines are in the wrong places.

Sharpshooter:
They must be right. I have just checked my 1992 Disco and my 1984 110. Both the same as yours.

beast5680:
if it has a master spline and you cant get it wrong then what have is right , however most propshafts should be "phased" that is the yokes are in line down the length of the shaft, my V8 one was out like yours and i,ve turned it so its in line which resulted in a lot less vibration when off roading

carls200tdi:
just checked a rangie prop i have in shed exactly the same as yours

SteveGoodz:
It's almost certainly an optical illusion (or too much vin rouge ~ hic!) but the prop in that top picture looks bent to me.
