I have to remove my gearbox and while it's all dismatled I was thinking of getting the prop shaft balanced.
Does anyone have any first hand advice on where I might have this done?
Many thanks and regards

Should be getting the prop shaft back from Dave Mac Props in Coventry tomorrow. UJ's were perfectly fine so just a rebalance. He was recommended by CTS and the only place I could find that was open on Saturday morning!

£45 balance £15 delivery + Vat.
I'm not sure how much it was out by.
The rear seal on my t5 worked its way loose and I lost half a litre of atf.
So I got the prop rebalanced and the diff rebuilt and ploybushed as there must be a bit of resonance somewhere along the driveline. Hope it eliminates the issue.
