Propshaft overhaul

[A80Avant]

I got mine done by ROb, superb job and fast as well. Im guessing i wont need one for the next 15 years or so...!

[GT500]

Yes thats them but, they have fallen out with the supplier!
I now deal direct with supplier!
Lets have a show of hands as to who wants one.. If I do run a group buy I DO NOT want dissapearing berks that order one then never pay!

I brought in 18 windscreens for the mustang owners club forum members. Four never paid! Not good when they were £150 each!

Names please:

Iin that case we need a group buy of OEM ones from the place that did your prop Rob

Won't be straight for long if you use the floppy bmw crap part!

nope - its CRITICAL that you keep the whole lot as straight as a die when you centre the bearing and shim it to the correct height.
I suggest you read the pdf workshop manual thats floating around on here somewhere...

[s2_bo]

Does the bearing not hold it straight when you bolt it up?

[S-Express]

Don't forget to keep your prop straight when you re-install!

The center bearing bmw part number is:
26111206502

The Euro Car Parts number for that bearing is:
652110010

They are about £17 on the website plus shipping, i have ordered 4 so if any one needs one let me know and i can do them for £19 inc slandered delivery in the uk.

Cheers

Where do you guys buy the prop bearing nowadays then? as vagparts are out of business??

[Error404]

Funny you posted this Bo I just started to dismantle my ABY Avant shaft to refurb and build a hybrid one to suit a 6spd gearbox install. I'm looking for the right CVs too.........

Also anyone know where you can get a replacement UJ from either?

[s2_bo]

Is this the correct CV joint to refurbish the prop?
