mossy Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 Brand new propshaft from burton power....£156 later. Does it fit. DOES IT FOOK! means either the prop is wrong or someone has been redrilling the diff flange!
timmy4doors Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 mate u have some bad luck hope u get it sorted
jay Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 why wont it fit mate?? dont forget the holes are probably 'offet'.... hope you get it sorted..
Noodles Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 I got one custom made for less than that but persist with burtons there a stubbon bunch of.......!
mossy Posted July 23, 2008 Author Report Posted July 23, 2008 why wont it fit mate?? dont forget the holes are probably 'offet'.... hope you get it sorted.. two holes line up and 2dont....even if i put 2bolts in it, its just gonna vibrate itself off.
Noodles Posted July 23, 2008 Report Posted July 23, 2008 Im sure that it has to go a certain way, i have put mine on a few times and found one blot wont fit and have turned it round 90 degress and then it fits
rich_mkii_rs2000 Posted July 23, 2008 Report Posted July 23, 2008 the single piece prop i got of burtons was not very good, it fitted but needed rebalancing. Took it to JW engineering at Bexleyheath who sorted it. Top guys and good prices.

If your'e still having problems I will pop round and have a look. What does it go between? I wonder if one of my old ones could be caniblised to fit.

MK2 Harrier Posted July 23, 2008 Report Posted July 23, 2008 I got a new prop from burton and mine vibrates at 70 mph needs rebalancing.
mossy Posted July 23, 2008 Author Report Posted July 23, 2008 sounds brilliant....they wont take it back as they say it is right and it must be the flange thats different...Plus now ive fitted it, its now used.
Noodles Posted July 23, 2008 Report Posted July 23, 2008 Tell them to fook off! Took me 6 months to get another set of followers out of em that were crap, pm jimbob they kept selling him the wrong head gasket for ages and would not listern to him telling them they were wrong. Lets just say I never use Burtons anymore

caprinerd Posted July 24, 2008 Report Posted July 24, 2008 try turning the flange 1/4 a turn and see if they all line up my capper`s got of set holes and if put up in to place wrong only 2 holes line up
