Defender 110 Rear Tailshaft. Where can i get a replacment?

Post by sclarke7171 »

My Tailshaft has a few nicks in it from stone damage and the paint is missing, so id like to get a new one.

Where can i source one from?

I'm keen to get a new one made and double skin to stop the paint getting chipped....

Try some of the diff conversion places like Keysborough diffs or similar where a lot of g/box conversions are done. They could replace the tube with thicker wall and balance it as suggested above.

Cheers Engineering in Bayswater Nth do exhaust & tailshaft mods 9761 6663, might be worth a try....they specialise in trucks so Rover shouldn't be too hard to do!
