[bobfather]

Does anyone know the size or LR part number for the propshaft UJ? It's the later T5 gearbox propshaft if that makes any difference.

I found this one but just wanted to check before ordering

LR Direct UJ

Am I right in assuming it's normally just the gearbox end one that seizes due to heat from the exhaust silencer and difficulty accessing the nipple?

The Landrover ones are HardySpicer/GKN, often with added handling/packaging..

The nipples aren't as great as many think IMHO Bob... As you force grease in it ends up coming out of 2 knuckles & the other 2 hardly seem to get anything???? Obviously you can get a good grease distribution around all 4 on assembly.

Both get a very hard life when you consider everything goes through them....

I guess you're right, I may aswell replace both ends while I have it off the car
