well mocked my propshaft up today, axle sits so wheels are square in the arches, engine sits so its in the centre of the chassis, prop fitted on a shot from underneath



now i have 2d down on the tailshaft and 2d down on the axle yoke, but the axle yoke is offset to one side slightly so im now wondering if i should of offset the engine so there parallel sideways on ?

 

there needs to be slight angles on each joint otherwise the u/j will wear very quickly

 

As per Jay, and 2deg across the shaft is about the most you want

 

well ive checked today ive got 6d static and thats the least it can physically be, will be slightly less when the nose of the axle rises under acceleration, max rpm of the shaft with be about 5000 rpm.

 

I really wouldnt worry about it too much.

 

am i being over cautious ? i just dont want it flying to bits on me lol, im ruuning land rover ujs so there tough il just have to run it where it is now at id guess 5d and see what happens.

 

should be fine at that mate
