I will not do that, even for a mall queen that never seen off road. It may create vibrations in the drive train and let's not forget the "inspection hole" that a failure will create. By the way, these is not fairy tale, it does happen.......just rehab what you have, if they can't because the knuckles for the u joint are broken have then cut and replace. It is not a reactor for the space shuttle. You may don't want to accept the suggestions and do what what you want, ultimately pay now or pay later.

Is this just a "he lucked out this one time" scenario, works only with little or no lift (my opinion), or has the elusive unicorn shown himself and we can all ditch the DC?
Sounds way too good to be true. I'm very skeptical.

Well I guess you are a genius and figured out that a disco only needs a single cardon front drive shaft. You should probably go to work for Land Rover and let them know what other mistakes they have made that you can easily fix. Btw if you want to lift your truck it is ok to use spring spacers made of pine wood as long as it been shalacked.

Sorry, but you do realize how ridiculous this commentary is, right? What makes you say that?

The propshaft is running great. That's the only thing I can tell.

Ridiculous? You haven't even seen anything good happen yet peppe. Better keep your seatbelt on around here. So what, you couldn't afford the right shaft or are you really smarter than all those engineers?

No help me out. Remember that Elmer Fudd guy from England who came around for a couple days. Living in his truck and listening to some kinda relaxation music to help him sleep? Then Kenny and Chappy went at it for a while on the guys welcome thread? Good times

You fucked my ex-wife too????

No I couldn't do that. I've been on a really really short leash for the last 24 yrs of my life. I think she planted a chip in me so she knows where I'm at at all times.

Is the quote your thinking of "be yourself, everyone else is taken? Or is it "see no evil,and speak no evil and you will never be invited to any good parties?

I think you should be kinda happy your posts are called commentary.Even though he is from Brazil. Unless commentary means something different down there.

Maybe he meant "Life's too important to be taken seriously" or "A gentleman is one who never hurts anyone's feelings unintentionally."

Lots of good ones out there.

I needed a quickly solution... It was cheap enough to give it a try
Will only be able to order a tw or gbr on feb mext year when I will be traveling to the US... Shipping is not an option too expensive. More than the propshaft costs :(

But I really liked it so far...

oh ya forgot to say " stick around " This is just the way we talk to each other. Tons of good info here. We don't have a welcome to the board thread like some boards do but that's cause most of us are really not welcome anyplace. I work on these trucks and I can assure you there is no better source for old Rover info anyplace. I hang out as a way to remember all this old stuff.
And I kinda like your insults in that messed up English as a second language thing you have going on.
