4x4 propshaft supports/bearings
Hi everyone,
My cally is sick (again) the two rubber mounted bearings that support the prop have worn out...I asked Vauxhall but no longer serviced, am speaking to propshaft services on Monday again but does not look good ! Does anyone know where I can get some?
Any help much appreciated.
cheers
Pete

Hi,
You right, the bearing is available through Vauxhall, the problem is the rubber mounts which are not, these are getting old now so secondhand is not ideal, symtoms are a similar noise as top mounts going, my prop is now with a specialist, latest is there is not an aftermarket rubber so we are now looking at using a BMW assembly, will update this site with a solution for anyone else who has or may get this problem in the future asap...I am disapointed with Vauxhall these cars are only just 10 years out of production and this rubber is an essential mechanical item unique to the 4x4 cav / calibra without it 2wd is the only option
