Hi. Have decided to stop muffing around with my knackered front prop and am going to replace it. The part number is FRC8390 from my defender county 2.5td - G reg. Trying to source one second hand , can anyone tell me what other landrover models have this same prop or put me in the direction of a reliable dealer. Thanks. Chris.

I think the 300tdi props are actually longer as I've got what was originally a 2.5td and I received a 300tdi front prop by mistake. Was too long by a good few mm

300 rear props are longer as front is shorter,transmission is further forward on a 300 hence the bulge near hand brake
