Prop shafts
Posted: Wed Aug 15, 2007 4:37 pm
Wondering if someone could help....
Ive rebuilt my car entirely on the mechanical front, since my prop centre bearing snapped. Since then i have gone through two more centre bearings and two of the front dampening bushes. It is really starting to get to me lol. I have put a sport gearbox into the car, its a 325ise. There were no major differences between them, bar the gear linkages.
My question to you guys is... is there a certain way to put a prop on or a certain way to set it up? Ive been setting the centre bearing to the front of the car. The other one is where i drove with the centre bearing snapped would that have put the balance out on the prop enough to damage new bearings and bushes im putting on?
The only other route ive yet to take is i know there are two types of prop an was going to try the other one since ive changed the gearbox for the older type. Its driving me nuts the vibrations im getting, wondered if anyone knew what i was doing wrong??
Cheers in advance
