I recall getting some vibration at very high speed, so was thinking about replacing the UJ's whilst the exhaust is off and being repaired.

Will these do the job? I take it I'll need two; one for each end?

I doubt it, I think that they are a TVR specific.

Of course if you know the code number for them then they can be sourced at a specialist.

No worries... I'm desperate for timber cladding at the moment for my shed build if you have any of that on the shelf??? Can't seem to find anybody that wants business South of Watford...

I need to cover 52sqm. My shed is 3x4m. Standard shiplap for the walls and perhaps something thicker for the roof and floor. I had somebody who was going to do the lot for £500 delivered this week, but it failed to materialise twice. The only places doing a similar price are in the NE and can't deliver till the end of May. banghead

It's really holding my plans up...

Ours are the same as LR... but beware cheap pattern parts... I'd only bother with GKN/HardySpicer UJ's

Use a treated ship lap for the walls and a cheap ply for roof and floor.

Use a decent elastomeric felt on the roof.

Chris have you tried Wingham Timber?
They've given me good prices before and are often up for a deal.

Don't you need to have the prop balanced if you have been messing with it?

I'm going to mark it and put it back the same.
