Default Rubber in propshaft knuckle

Just wondering, the propshaft on my 4x4 that goes from gearbox/transfer case to the front diff has play in the knuckle again !

I replaced it not that long ago with a s/h item which I guess what on its way out.

Can the rubber bits in the knuckle be replaced ? Are they available separately ?

You can buy a new uj joint for these. Most motor factors list it but will supply the rear prop one instead, but there is a place near me that can supply brand new QH joints (4 way spider part) for silly low money.

I had to get one for my 4be Saff TwinCam last year.

If you want, I will dig out their details and the part number which I get the chance?

Cheaper than replacing a perfectly good front prop otherwise.
