Spare shaft here, can bring to nat meet. Slight surface corrosion but would clean up fine. Used, ujs replaced by myself at some point. Swapped out to try and diagnose a vibration, but no fault found.

Ford garage should give you that.

If not and you have to change them anyway, after removal either take to prop specialist, or measure of of cup, depth of cup and d of unit spindles.

You should then be able to find some at a motor factors such as ecp or other factors that can be bothered to look into there catalogue properly. If not once again call a specialists and they will be happy to help you.

Before the sealed units came to Fords, Land Rover ones used to fit. After that I would not know.

Quinton Hazell number should be QL211 - you should be able to match other brands from this.

 

I've also got my old 2B prop if you want that, nothing wrong with it, nicely painted, fit straight on.

 

Dave Mac Props are still going but they've moved up to Bayton Road - they made me a prop a couple of months ago, nice job and very reasonable price.

Its probably fine but i remember reading that some of the RH props were seamed tube and as such had the potential to fail hard. Might be worth checking when you have them to hand. There are pics on here somewhere of a prop all twisted up.

When I worked at Hardy Spicer ( the propshaft and driveshaft manufacturers) all the standard propshafts used seamed tube. We had our own tube mill that produced it using resistance welding. The tube diameter and gauge were specified according to the torque it needed to meet.
