And there you have it! although this is a mock up, need to weld them together.

didn't fancy the old hack'n'tap so i'm trying the groove'n'circlip concept
so I took off both props marked up the groove started the jeep put it in reverse and begun cutting with the grinder

sadly I can't use the orginal cone so need to make a new rear seal holder which is to come .

The circlip is off of an old TC so far nothing brought :dance:

Funnily enough, there's a bloke on JJ doing exactly the same thing! :098:
-
Good work and brain activity, much respect :greggmo:
Hack and tap that turns up in a box from RE with drill bit included is a damn load easier though :icon_winkle:
-
Good work
be interested to see how well it works
nice bit of welding

I hate drilling and I've tried to drill this harden shaft bollocks no ta plus this hasn't cost me anything . :lol_hitting:
-
I get it, my comment definitely wasn't a jibe. Drilling mine for the hack n tap was easy, maybe it's cos I sliced the end off - it might just be the outside that's hard.
Keep the photos and tech coming :greggmo:
-
James I didn't take that way :056: I hate drilling :die: . The spare TC i'm using for bits I experimented with on drilling with minimial amount hacked of each time did get easier but i'm not a great fan of chopping off to much spline .
-
Ita all good in my book well done
-
Balance still be ok ?
-
What did you gain from this? The length looks to be about the same as original and you would have no increase in strength. Did you require a CV joint because of an extream lift?
-
I now run the same prop front and back so less spares for the get me home factor and the old prop was on its limit of flex also there's about a 2” difference in lenght .
Here's the cut,'n'shut cone
