Burton Power is pleased to announce it can now offer its own version of the original Group 1 prop shaft. The Burton Propshaft uses a larger diameter tubing and has no centre bearing; this single piece propshaft is thus much stronger than the original two piece item. It is suitable as a direct replacement for the original prop or for competition use. It will fit all standard RS2000s or Mk2 Escorts that use a Rocket or 5 speed gearbox and an English or Atlas axle. It will also fit a Mk1 with a Mk2 diff. flange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Propshaft is a high quality item manufactured in the UK, not a cheap inferior import. The vast majority of imports use rather crude forgings which are heavier and the tubing spec can often be suspect. The tube specification used on Burton propshafts is SAE 1020\/1040, as per the original specification. The end float in the universal joints is controlled by varying the thickness of the circlips which gives a smoother joint action and better control over straightness and dynamic balance. All shafts are checked and corrected for straightness. The aim is to have no greater runout of more than 0.25mm on any part of the tube (compared to original specification of 0.35mm). Dynamic balance is at 3000rpm to ISO specification G16. All propshafts are now fitted with an upgraded transmission sleeve to eradicate any reliability issues under extreme race conditions.
