    S agissant des cardans, il faut acheter roulements et croisillons de cardans provenant de marques connues comme SKF ou Timken. Si vous achetez de la piece adaptable ou d origine, vous aurez une qualité inferieure aux deux marques precedentes. En outre, chaque croisillon de cardans doit pouvoir etre graisse avec un graisseur central, mais aussi deux graisseurs lateraux montes sur les chapeaux de croisillon. Ce faisant, le graissage du croisillon est complet et uniforme. Certains disent qu il faut faire un tour au cardan apres chaque graisseur, mais je pense que c est inutile. Ce principe de graissage est important pour les vehicules soumis à de fortes sollicitations en agricole, donc c est encore vrai pour le 4x4. Si vous ne faites que de la route, faire que le graisseur central du croisillon est suffisant. Dans cette video, le nouveau cardan comporte deux croisillons de cardans avec un graisseur central unique: c'est une grave erreur.

    Yes, mine busted on a roundabout when it was under a year old, waited for LR recovery, got bored, walked to a store, bought some spanners, was just throwing it in the back when LR recovery arrived, he looked at it, said there was no sign of it ever being greased, and left, drove around for months before i got it replaced

      I think I fitted it in autumn 2022, but since then it’s done a couple of Alps trips (about 2k each) a trip up to the Arctic Circle (about 5k) so I’d estimate around 10-15k. I Seem to go through them quickly!

      @@TheOrangeDefender If you are chewing up Front UJ's , get someone to Verify the Angle of your Front Diff . For a Prop-shaft to be reliable the Gearbox Output Shaft and the Diff Input shaft need to be Parallel . And before the " Peanut Gallery " chimes in , PARALLEL not Concentric .
