Prop Shaft

Just been looking at the prop area.
From UJ to UJ the prop will be 400mm long and will run down to the diff at an angle of about 8 Degrees.
Is this an acceptable slope on the prop shaft?
If not what are the limits?

Cheers Mark.

Hi Mark. That sounds like a typical Dax setup. Best of luck.

You need a bit of an angle to keep the UJ`s working and spreading the grease around the UJ bearings - should be fine.
