Remove propeller shaft

[de Auge]

Hi,

I have a little (?) Problem.
In Steves bible he told to remove the 4 srews and then
remove the prop shaft. But there is no space.
Any Idea to remove the prop shaft without removing
the differential or engine???

Greating

If you're going further and looking to take the gearbox out ignore the book, the advise quoted from TVR Engineering is "pure bunkem", refer to threads and advise on here ( trust me, I found out the hard way )!

I love that photo!!!!

What are the lifting points for a 2 post lift? It looks like they are on the outriggers wouldn't have thought that bit was strong enough

Out, thanks to these forums. Made a mess of replacing one of the UJs. Didn't undo the grease nipple and in my 12 ton press it hydraulic'd itself to death! I'll pick up another tomorrow.

Got mine out thanks for the guidance, not a big job at all. couple of axel stands, undo the bolts then drop the diff with the two bolts. way easier than engine mounts!

My solution :



Removing the propshaft is now a 10 minutes job
