febi bilstein opens up propshaft repair opportunities
Share:

febi is providing independent garages with the opportunity to provide quality propshaft repairs with its range of over 90 propshaft centre bearings for a variety of vehicle makes and models and all in  OE matching quality.


A propshaft transmits the drive from the transmission to the differential on rear wheel drive and four wheel drive vehicles. Due to the high speed at which it rotates, the propshaft must be balanced in order to avoid heavy vibration and premature wear. The propshaft is generally in two pieces, which are joined and supported by a centre bearing. The centre bearing keeps the shaft in the correct position and attaches it to the chassis or body via rubber and metal mountings. This reduces vibration and helps to protect against bending and vertical changes.

febi says its extensive range of propshaft centre bearings offer long service life, and reduced noise and effective vibration reduction. The parts utilise OE grade rubber on bearing mountings and are precision balanced for optimum performance.

febi says that the use of poor quality propshaft bearings can lead to premature wear. The a defective or worn propshaft bearing can cause strong vibrations, mean the propshaft becomes unbalanced and the bearing is unable to support the prop shaft.
 
febi provides garages with the opportunity to buy the propshaft centre bearing separately, saving you time and money with an efficient and more simple repair solution. This includes centre bearings for Porsche models, offering an alternative to the manufacturer solution of only offering the full propshaft replacement. 

The products are available from febi bilstein stockist nationwide. For more information and a full parts listing visit www.febilive.com
