Bailey Morris Ltd

Bailey Morris Ltd stock an extensive range of Universal Joints and Centre Support Bearings for most commercial vehicles (HGV's) operating within the U.K. and Europe. Our comprehensive range also encompasses passenger car, LCV and PSV applications and includes original equipment and aftermarket specification products.

We are generally able to supply from stock for most vehicles and off-highway equipment. In addition we also stock a range of heavy industrial Universal Joints for the medium to heavy duty range of cardan shafts found in paper and steel mills, railway and marine enviroments.

Our extensive inventory includes the following industry leading brand names; Klein Gelenkwellen, DANA Spicer, Sicit, GWB, GKN, Hardy Spicer, GMB, Matsuba, Elbe, Elso, Gewes, Kempf and Tirsan Kardan.

We are able to identify Universal Joints and Centre Bearings by original equipment part numbers and in many cases from vehicle chassis or identification number*.

We welcome enquiries from propshaft repair workshops, self-build kit car owners, wholesale and distribution stockists, fleet and individual vehicle operators.

*Any goods supplied, which have been identified by vehicle registration or chassis number, cannot be guaranteed to be correct if the vehicle has been modified from the original specification.

The generic layout drawings below are for your use and we welcome enquires by E-mail or fax. If you have any questions regarding your propshaft requirements then please feel free to contact our sales office for assistance.

Our extensive knowledge and experience allows us to provide advice on a large variety of vehicles types, including bike-engine installations, tube-in-tube designs and enquiries relating to American, European and Asian applications.

We currently stock O.E. propshafts for many 4x4 models, but we are proud to have also spent time developing our own "Extreme" range. For the majority of 4x4 vehicles we can offer an up-graded propshaft option, whether you need greater angle, longer splines or larger torque capacity (which may give increased potential life-expectancy).

Our designs offer the following improvements:

> Higher torque capacity than standard original equipment units
> Up-graded involute spline configuration
> Double seal on slip joint assembly prevents moisture and dirt ingression
> RILSAN coated splines for smoother operation
> Extended spline assembly
> Metal dust covers on universal joint bearing caps (prevents water ingress)
> Wide angle operation up to 30° available
> 40° extra wide angle operation also available
> For U.K registered vehicles propshafts can be identified by vehicle registration number, and for non-U.K. registered vehicles we require the chassis number (VIN number)*

*Any goods supplied, which have been identified by vehicle registration or chassis number, cannot be guaranteed to be correct if the vehicle has been modified from the original specification.
