Been having a look around for a front shaft as my double CV one does not like the lift I have on it now.
2 options:
source the axle & TC yokes myself, then have a quote of £230+vat for a DC/UK propshaft sourced fairly local to me. so £350ish all told
buy the job lot from the US at $440 plus shipping duty etc, I reckon about £400-450 all in
Would prefer the first option TBH, its easy to go up the road if the prop goes bad, any ideas where to source axle/TC yokes from?
-
or....
Have a chat with Lighthouse, the whole lot came as a service item to upgrade the CV shafts, waiting for a call back with the price

What did the wheel of mis-fortune at lighthouse come up with, my guess is £675 :003:

still waiting. Expect I will source the prop second hand but get all the other bits from lighthouse, but happy to pay upto £300 so will see, you never know :hysterical:
-
£724 :icon_eek:

Right, the yokes are £200, inc the fittings. Quick call to GT 4x4 for a prop methinks

£724 :icon_eek:

Could be the exchange rate not helping but Lighties aint as cheap as they used to be :icon_rolleyes:

Don't import from the US it's 4.5% added to the cost of pats & shipping plus VAT what a rip off

Given the quotes I am getting in the UK for the parts getting from the UK is going to be the cheapest option, doesn't seem to be any second hand driveshafts around at the mo :banghead:
