Hi all

A place up cross green Leeds do prop repairs, forgot name of place.

Edit-D&F propshafts

contact these people ask for sales and tell them paul from brammer sent you
http://www.ims-ltd.co.uk/ subaru will only sell you a whole prop these people do the exact ujs you need, do a search on here someone else has bought and fitted them with great result :thumb:
read this thread https://www.scoobynet.com/drivetrain...placement.html and there is no need to balance them that is what a uj is for to take out any inbalance the only time you need to have them balanced is if you weld on a new or different yoke or shorten/lengthen them

I've got a 6 prop shaft if your interested, thought my center baring was away but turned out to be the diff

Thanks..but that was for a classic and I don't know the sizes for these ujs, do you?

Thanks mate but wanna get it refurbished.. new ujs powder coat the lot

they will know last time i spoke to them the guy rattles off all the part numbers and what cars they fit. subaru size ujs also fit nissan datsun and various others, go on thier website its all they do for a living and i will have a bet with you the uj on subaru classic bugeye newage are all the same size :thumb:

Thanks I'll give them a ring

no prob i use them as a supplier everyday at work, totally superb company and service is second to none, make sure you tell them i sent you if you want trade prices :thumb: heres my prediction
cap size is 22mm diameter and length is 57.5mm.

If having it full refurbed then it will need balancing so I'd get a proper shop todo it

update

i rang both the suggested places and http://www.ims-ltd.co.uk/ suggested that i ring d&f propshafts so gave them a ring and they both pointed out that newage propshafts are pinched into place and have no circlips so need special equiptment (see pic)

so i asked how much to refurb so thats 2 uj's a center bearing and balancing and its £170+vat which i thought was quite reasonable..
so its there getting done now

ill put pics up when i get it back

That's a fair price tbh for x2 uj, new bearing and balance. I'll keep that in mind for future as they not far
