propshaft UJ
Wolfie:
You can remove all the bolts with the car on the ground, undo the diff end first. Admittedly it is easier if you can rotate the propshaft. If the car is on flat ground you could always push the whole car - DO NOT move it whilst underneath, and make sure it is secure before going back underneath. If you do raise one corner, remember the axle stand.
Also the nuts & bolts are 9/16 AF not 14mm.
tomkbucks:
9/16 AF not 14mm poo only have MM sockets ! lol oh well will get a mate to help and use his ! cheers
KingWolf:
That's funny :? when I changed mine earlier this year the bolts were 14mm. Maybe I have a special Disco...lol
Oh yeah, it really helps if you have a good vice and workbench at hand.
You'll be amazed at the difference once you've changed them, feels like a different Disco afterwards.

davidlandy:
a 14mm will fit , but not properly - 9/16 is the correct size
KingWolf:
Well I guess you learn something new everday after all :lol:
I've also got the propshaft socket tool thingy which makes life even easier, no more faffing around with a pair spanners for me anymore.. :lol:
