Area Representative bluenose Posted November 28, 2013 Area Representative Share Posted November 28, 2013 Need to replace mine over the winter on my prop. Anyone got any recommendations for where to get a good quality one, and no I do not want to change it to a TRT prop There are a few US companies doing poly version here, and herebut wondered whether they would provide the same level of diff safeguarding that a rubber one does 🤔 Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Klunk Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Replaced mine with a Febi one as advised they are the best quality. Stock part on 2.0 Vauxhall Omega and most BMWs. Have got the code somewhere - pretty sure I've mentioned it on here before. Regards, Giles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klunk Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 Found it - it was a Febi 02562 (OEM BMW 26 11 1 225 624) Somewhere I read that the poly ones are stonger but don't allow for much (1o) misalignment in the coupling, although you would have to check this with the supplier. From my previous thread, it would appear that all the Blackbirds suffer 3-4o of misalignment. The Febi one allows for up to 3o. I haven't done a huge amount of miles this year but, last time I looked, the coupling was not showing any signs of cracking.
