paddocks do a front HD wide dangle prop for £155 +vat
Gwyn lewis ones are £215 +vat. The only major difference i can see is that there blue.
they all come with greasable uj's which is what i want. apart from that i cant tell.
Oh and the paddocks are bailey and morris or GKN(spicers) and the Gwyn lewis ones are also GKN.

The link you posted WLM, im not sure that is a HD wide angle. i googled frc8386 HD and thats a standard prop for a def/disco and rrc.
I only have a 2" lift john, i dont think i need anything longer than normal.

i ve got 2 inch lift on the old 90 with standard props, i replaced them both as the splines had worn and where quite lose with standard props from paddocks, no problem for 18 months other than a uj.
ive bought hd wide angle props for the new 90 ive bought and found the front one ive taken off is a wide angle, one of the ujs has gone whats it worth to you? its the same as the paddock ones

Early RRC has Wide angle joints compared to the puny ones you get on later motors, Plus any Original propshaft has more that the crap £30 cheap propshafts you get from paddocks/craddocks or any suppier. Better to replace a uj on an original prop than replace propshaft as the new replacement is likley to be just good enough for std motor whereas original and indeed old RRC ones were more than up to the job
Cheers Jai, Think ill treat my old prop to some new greasable UJ's and then if TC's wide angle dosent help or isn't up to it ill swap them over or a have a re-think.
Could you see about postage TC? ive found a new wide angle one for £99 so if its alot for postage then i might go with the new one.
Cheers
