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 )

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!
