ive just had the worst experience of my driving life.

i was coming down the motorway at about 68/70 when the car vibrated i instantly thought prop shaft loose.

so i slowed down with the intention of pulling over i was in second lane but just as i got down to about 50/55 the rear prop came off it front mounting (pinion/flange?) it hit the floor and the back end went up in the air but luckly did not flip i managed to get into first lane and luckly had an experienced lorry behind who got out the way quick.scary!!!!

i had to take of the prop on the side of motorway after id dug it out of the verge.
it looks like two of the front bolts vibrated out it has then sheered off the two remain bolt holes.
ill have to use nylon bolts and lock washers next time i think.

its battered the exhaust and obviously the mount on the transfer box where it connects has only 2 bolts holes left in tact ,,are these easy to change and how much anyone know? .
im hoping thats it with the damage though .
