Find the right Hardy Spicer driveline part
Hardy Spicer is best known for propshafts, universal joints and driveline components. Match the replacement to the propshaft actually fitted, particularly where a Land Rover has been rebuilt, modified or fitted with a later replacement shaft.
| Job | Best place to start | Check before ordering |
|---|---|---|
| Replace a complete front propshaft | Front propshaft for the correct vehicle, engine and driveline layout | Check the part number, flange arrangement, overall layout and any transmission or wheelbase split |
| Replace a complete rear propshaft | Rear propshaft matching the vehicle, wheelbase and drivetrain | Confirm the front or rear position, flange type and original propshaft reference |
| Replace a propshaft universal joint | Hardy Spicer UJ matching the existing joint dimensions | Measure across the bearing cups and confirm the bearing-cap diameter rather than relying on vehicle fitment alone |
| Compare Hardy Spicer and GKN parts | Use the stated brand and product markings on each product page | Some Hardy Spicer products are marked GKN or described as GKN Hardy Spicer because of the shared driveline history |
Check propshaft fitment before ordering
Vehicle, year and VIN information can narrow the choice, but it may not confirm which propshaft is currently fitted. Replacement shafts, rebuilt propshafts and conversions can differ from the original factory specification.
Front or rear propshaft
Confirm the propshaft position before comparing part numbers. Front and rear shafts can use different lengths, flanges and universal joints.

Hardy Spicer and GKN
Hardy Spicer became part of GKN’s driveline business, which is why the two names often appear together. Some products are supplied as Hardy Spicer, some carry GKN markings, and some are described as GKN Hardy Spicer.
