Just to confirm- Jag XJS gearbox prop flange is the same as LT77? I dont think I can use an SD1 prop as the rear end will have to have a UJ, and as you know UJ's have to be in proper alignment front and rear to stop vibration. The SD1 props dont appear to have UJ's- are they constant velocities or something?

SD1's have a CV joint at both ends of the prop.
Bailey Morris did me a shaft with a new one a few years back.

I am sure that Jag flanges are the same.

Yeah- I doubt I'd be able to get one made up with a CV joint that fits the sierra cossy LSD on the rear end- though I will ask.

just bolt an adaptor to the diff flange on the Sierra.

Anything can be made to fit anything ( within reason )

Check out the catalogue on Bailey Morris' website. You wouldn't believe the number of options.....

Just to add another company to the mix.

Both my front and rear prop on my landy have been made by these guys

http://www.barpropshafts.co.uk/

They are local to me but I know of one garage in Lincolnshire that uses them for all their cv/prop orders as they are very good.

My prop was a rear wide angle yoked one for my Land rover, howeve rmy mate also had a double cardon (spelling?!?) one made by them and I know of another 2 props that have been done by them and all are 100% since being fitted.

My rer cost me £110 and front £115 (a few years between). I would recommend them any day. Small familly business but always turn them round for me and palls by the end of the day, truley awsome!
