You will also need a new flange for the front of the T/box to allow you to fit the TD5 propshaft. :wink:

It's should do, as long as that's the only place the vibration is coming from.  :wink:

If your vibration from the front prop is anything like mine after I fitted the caster correction radius arms, and you've been driving it around for a while, then I'd also check the output bearing from the transfer box. There should be a small amount of movement from the output shaft, just enough to be able to see it.

And don't forget a new seal for transfer box flange as well.

you can try

b a r propshafts in neath abbey nr swansea 01639 646922......you need to speak to a guy called andrew....

afaik they now do one with the coupling that is the same as your output flange,so no need to buy a new flange.

mine cost me 120.00  for the prop with them and 50.00 for the flange from devon 4x4.

I got mine when it was on offer from Devon 4x4 and it was £140 for the OE propshaft and flange.
Scorpion (ya I know  :roll: ) do one which will fit straight on without the need for the flange as well.
