Propshaft U/J Marina

[trevor_ford]

Propshaft U/J needs to be replaced on the Roadster. The motor factor is looking for measurements which means taking the bearing out but I need the car to get to the motorfactors !
Does anyone have a part number that might help ?
The propshaft was originally on a Marina Van. Are the U/Js different on Marinas,vans,Itals?
Any help appreciated.

Re: Propshaft U/J Marina

Some Marinas had staked UJ's, not necessarly replaceable, most had Circlipped UJ's.
All models, of Marina/Ital and 7cwt & 10cwt vans used the same sized bearings.
The part number I have is GUJ 119 for the middle and rear and GUJ 120 for the front but I cannot tell you the difference between the two.

It might be that the following ebay item will help.

Cheers Steve. I've just found the QH code QL15002 and a Unipart code of GUJ101. From memory the front and rear were the same, both circlipped, but now I have a bit of doubt ! They seem to be available with or without grease nipples so that is maybe the coding difference.

I was told that there were only two sizes of UJ fitted to cars, the big and and the little one, as Spicers only made those two sizes originally. The Marina had the little one.

Turns out it was the diff not the u/js. Fun afternoon spent replacing it. Now the car is quiet again.
