Which rear prop?

Hi all,

I am after some advice regarding what rear prop to buy and from where, here are my choices!

LR-£442- 1 year warranty (probably not)

Bearmarch- £279 1 year warranty (From lrdirect.com)
Hardy Spicer- £263 1 year warranty (From lrdirect.com)
OEM- £244- 2 year warranty (From lrdirect.com)
Britpart- £220- 2 year warranty (From lrdirect.com)

Bearmarch- £224 (From JGS 4x4)

Advanced Factors- OEM- £280- 2 year warranty


GKN (from island 4x4)- £228- (Don't state warranty though)

Any ideas what one is the best one to go for?

Any help will be gratefully appreciated.

Thanks,
Jamie

What's fitting a rear prop like as a job? Straightforward?

Yes, took me about 1.5 - 2 hours.
You need torx sockets - from memory E10 and E12, but better check...
 New gearbox & TC, 3 x front wheel bearings, belts changed, new oil pump, new battery, new rear prop, new front prop, new front diff, front arb refurbed, front cv boot kit, egr blank and BAS software patch, full rear suspension / drivelive rebuild, new front arms, LED trailer light fix, split charge.
Never had a 107, 90 or 127, but have had most of the rest!

2016 Discovery 4 3.0 SDV6 Landmark LE Auto Waitomo GreyDiscovery 4

The G prefix on the Britpart part number means that it should be an OEM part which I think is GKN for the prop.
I have the same prop on mine and it's been fine.
 D4 2016 Landmark, Waitomo Grey.
D3 2005 HSE, Bonatti Grey, now sold but still comes back for servicing.
Defender 2002 Td5 Commercial, had a hard life but slowly being restored.
I only work so I can afford to repair my Land Rovers!
