Just dont leave it to long, this happened to me when going down the highway.


Disco Matt:
Ouch!

Don't worry, I plan to do this ASAP. I've already ordered the propshaft (ebay) and will be ordering new UJ/donut/bolts shortly. Just a bit worried about getting the 13 year old bolts to undo as I'm not crawling under a car with a grinder. I like having all my body parts attached thanks!  :lol:

Seized nuts... Nothing a little lubrication wont sort out  ;)

good one, was it too much grease and it just slid off, ha ha, i have seen worse than this tho, the prop had snapped off and smashed a big hole in the gear box

stretchy:

in my own experience I have found vibrations and noises to be the folowing, front prop ujs, exhaust vibrating on body panels, handbreak shoes not relesing properly and grinding ratling on the drum, watter or mud inside the tyres (balancing) I think you will all agree the front rear uj is the most comon to fail. just keep an eye on these espeshily if you have a lift kit as it has to work at more of an angle so will be under more stress than normal.
