I got mine done by Adrian in Lilydale (Rangie Automotive) who replaced all three with greasable ones, still going strong !! :D
Has anyone who's done this themselves got some part numbers and brand names for greasable uni joints? Was going to buy a few and press em in, but dont want to take mine apart for identification till I have replacements...

Off to find out what they cost here...

From memory the double cardan joint that Slunnie sourced is a larger and stronger unit than stock rover. Hence the price.
Hardy Spicer used to list K5-L4R for the single unis in Disco & RR tailshafts but now list a HD version K5-A757. I've put the HD ones into my DC.Quote:

With the dollar at the moment you'd be crazy not to import and it was here within a few days!Quote:
