worth spending a little more and getting one to replace my defunct front prop?

Not, IMHO, worth paying for wide angle props unless you're lifting it, adding articulation, or generally uprating the suspension and drivetrain.

its already on a 2" lift, with heavy duty springs. looking at possibly adding another 2" and gonig for some 33 tyres. potentially looking at dislocation cones also

i have a 3 inch lift on my fender this caused vibration problems at 40mph and above, wide angled props fitted a month ago = no more bad vibrations. so imho well worth it

thats what i wanted to hear. got a front wide angle prop coming tomorrow, and will do the rear as and when

Heheheh, well yes if I'd known it was already lifted etc I'd have said it's a good upgrade to get the wide mouth props.

If you're adding dislocation cones make sure you also fit spring retainers at the bottom and that the top is free. Mate found this out the hard way ...

I agree with paul fit some heavy duty spring retainers cozwhile out laning the original ones that were on mine bent causing the spring to pop out at the bottom, they dont cost much or make um yer self
