Hi, :(
I have an other problem :dry: ... The spline of my front propeller shaft have radial play...

Is it necessary to replace it ?

I had that problem on the front and got one from Camsuzuki breakers

alternatively you could invest in a heavy duty one
after breaking two rear props in six months we have a heavy duty (landrover spec) wide angle reinforced spline one we had made by Bailey Morris with the ends drilled for the jimny

its a custom made - we send the old propshaft to them and they used it as a model to get the right length and bolt diameter - it cost £220 + postage

Try greasing it through the grease nipple, this removes quite a lot of play.

If that doesn't fix it, you will have to examine the splines to see how worn they are, and then maybe replace the whole thing

If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there :)
