Discovery 2 Front Propshaft OEM Repair Kit Double Cardan Joint

Land Rover Discovery 2, TD5 and V8 models are fitted with a special front prop-shaft that has 3 universal joints, 2 of which are mounted within a 'double Cardan' type joint, there is also a special centring bearing within this joint. This double Cardan joint allows the prop-shaft to run smoother and at greater angles. However, unlike most other universal joints used in most prop-shafts, the original universal joints are not greaseable, they do not have a grease nipple fitted and Land Rover consider them 'lubricated for life' and not a serviceable item!

As many Discovery owners use their vehicle for off-roading, it is inevitable that mud, sand, grit, and water will get into the universal joints and wear out quicker because they cannot be greased. Worn out universal joints cause vibrations, knocks and clunks. Until now, the only option has been to replace the complete prop-shaft, the current price for a genuine Land Rover prop-shaft is around £380.00!

This JGS4x4 Repair Kit allows you to replace the three universal joints with OEM greaseable universal joints with grease nipples and the special centring bearing for the double Cardan joint. This is a standard duty kit, we also offer a Heavy Duty version.
