Hello guys I took my prop off yesterday and took it to a prop place
The guy was a proper bellend talk about ripping people off
1st he tells me it's not off a Cosworth well ok maybe but it's been on the car since day one
2nd he tells me it's too dangerous to use as the ujs have gone as they have movement in them BOLLOX
3rd bearing has gone I knew that already
4th he tells me I can't get another 2wd prop as every single prop for a 2wd Cosworth is different and any one off another car won't fit
I ask him to change the bearing and he tells me it's a very labour intensive job WTF
He want well over £200 to do it
So I spoke to cossiedave off here he confirmed he was chatting shat and how to change the bearing
Well fuck me it took less than 10 mins to change it so well it was all apart I thought I might as well spruce it up so it's getting painted along with the bearing carrier and all the bolts

To confirm, the first guy you spoke to, it was his own business? ![Surprised](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/bigcry.gif)
I often wonder who's the stupid one, people that setup on their own without a fucking clue, or those of us who don't think we know enough and can't do it?
