- in this video we take a look at how the front Land Rover Defender, Discovery and Range Rover Classic front prop' shaft yokes are line up and how to measure a UJ for ordering parts.
Just threw rear probshaft. Your videos are invaluable mate. Thank you
As always you saved me from 1, reading the manual 5 times so i can absorb all the info. 2, knowing what to look for & accurately diagnose what i already suspected. I Started getting vibration under acceleration, vibration went away when clutch was engaged or in Neutral. 3, Getting it fixed at home with basic hand tools. Thanks yet again mate. Us Aussie Defender owners love your Vids.
Thanks for the videos. I always enjoy viewing them
Front and rear props stripped down and new UJs fitted following this guide , step by step. great result. thanks.
I had to grease my defender 90 as my 10k km service was due.
There was no way i could deliver the grease into the uni joint grease nipple..
Multiple different grease guns in different positions and angels with pressure..
Multiple different nozzles..Whilst under the Vehicle.Not one bit of grease went in....
Literally had to take each prop shaft off,Place on a table....Get direct exact angel...Apply all my force onto it and squeeze....FINALLY went in...Absolutely fantastic feeling that Only a landrover can give you.
good video. easy step by step guide. the socket is worth buying. saves lots of grief.
Great videos as always, top quality throughout you are a credit to the land rover community. Definitely going to follow your advice when I change the HG on my 'steam train' disco next week. Chris
thank you glad you like it. feedback is always welcome ....
Great video, but what's the reason for the front propshaft being out of phase?
Thank you for the very helpful vlog! I own a 61 plate puma and I struggle to fit a grease gun on the UJ nipple's? I often have to remove the propshafts to gain access, can you recommend a solution?
Is the yoke toast if the caps spin slightly in the yoke?
Geez - I just love your videos
Great vid! I can hear on the commentary that you have a smoke alarm with a low battery! ;) *Beep*
yes it is, well spotted. Would happen to start beeping at the wrong time...
Battery changed now.
Guyz help l want propshaft of defender 110 deasel engine 1986 model
I genuinely paused the video and walked into my hallway thinking it was mine!
Thanks Chris...I take it that it only applies to the coil sprung models then???
Nope applies to all changeable prop shaft UJs.
Nice video, but it omits a basic issue which most will struggle with - the removal of the flange bolts on the axle and transfer case ends. These bolts are almost unmovable with a conventional set of spanners etc. It's impossible to get a normal socket between the yokes to turn the bolt head. What tools are used by you to do this?
www.paddockspares.com/da1119-propshaft-bolt-removal-tool-usually-14-50gbp.html Here,... this is the popular solution.
Aha! THAT's what it's for (they call it something different in the USA). I'll run out and buy one! Many thanks! Maybe insert a small mention of this particular tool in your otherwise excellent vids?
yes I have mentioned it somewhere else. It is an excellent tool. Always kept one spare in the vehicle and a couple in my toolboxes as it also come in useful on other vehicles too!! Can be used sensibly with an air wrench.
Remember it is 9/16 and not 14mm. It’s a 3-8x24 bolt.
@@trailerfitter2 WHAT A RE THE COOORECT PART NUMBER FOR U JOINTS WHERE CAN WE GET THE CORRECT ONES
Help! I went camping and I'm 80 miles away from home and on the very last 2 miles of the trip here the joint snapped! What should I do?
I have a new to me Disco 2, I went under to grease the CV's and the prop shafts and I have the following questions:
1) on the rear CV I could not get grease to squirt out of all of the barrings, is that a bad sign?
2) can I use too much grease?
Bad sign if the grease isn't evenly greasing the UJs? It could be. you only want to pump in enough grease so you can hear the air crackling out from the rubbers.
super....I may have over done it.
It will only fling out the grease it doesn't need. The thing is where grease comes out, water gets in. Worth regularly apply some grease to them.
Mmmm so the out of line props..which land-rover have props made like that and what the reason Chris.
Don't know why they wanted the yokes to be set like this but it will be something to do with the behaviour of the axle / suspension movement.
Just spent far too long trying to sort the smoke/ heat detector out in my garage only to realise that the beep from a flat battery is on the video 🤣🤣
