Week 13 2020 Product Spotlight – Iveco Daily Propshaft Centre Bearing
In week 10, we took a quick look at our first propshaft centre bearing of the series (if you missed it, you can catch it here: https://www.firowpropshafts.co.uk/news/6/6/Volkswagen-Touareg-Propshaft-Centre-Bearing). We covered the main components of a centre bearing and how they operate within a propshaft.
This week we’re covering the Iveco Daily propshaft centre bearing: another common propshaft failure we see in our workshop. LCV registrations have been at an all time high for a number of years (https://www.smmt.co.uk/vehicle-data/lcv-registrations) and among those is the Iveco Daily. Similar to the Mercedes Sprinter or Ford Transit, the propshaft set-up on an Iveco Daily typically comes in two or three parts. You’ll find a fixed front shaft and a rear two-piece shaft, both containing a centre bearing. However, on some newer models, the set up can differ so give us a call if you find yourself confused!
Characterised by its extended shroud and unique bracket, the Iveco Daily centre bearing is one that you get to recognise on sight. What isn’t so easy to tell from a glance is the quality of the product and the reputation of the manufacturer. Through years of experience at Firow Propshafts, we’ve tested and vetted all the items we stock to ensure that only good quality items leave our premises. We know that our reputation and your livelihood depend on it.

Universal Joints are a common sight when it comes to Propshafts and are easily identifiable by many people in the automotive trade. However, if you’re someone who has limited experience with Propshafts, let alone the individual components, sometimes it can feel like you’re fumbling around in the dark.
Volkswagen’s mid-size luxury SUV, the Volkswagen Touareg, has been produced since 2002 and its popularity seems to suggest it’s following the sales trend for SUVs across Europe.
Scania Interaxle Propshafts (or “Bogie Propshafts”) are found on Scania tippers between the two back driven axles. It is quite common for these to fail due to the amount of stress they are under, so we quite often see these props in pretty bad shape.
