RM propshaft lengths

With so many variants about, can anyone shed any light on the correct length prop shafts for a Scania engined RM, between flange faces. Urgently needed as I have to try and source a pair to take to Austria at the weekend!

My bus number (if any): RML2532

Re: RM propshaft lengths

To the best of my knowledge Red Route buses at Northfleet have a Scania RML which I believe is 2420 Otherwise Ensign have a Scania, (1361 I think). Won't help with spares, but only a couple of hours from the Marsh with a tape measure. Also neither far from J W engineering at Barnehurst

Re: RM propshaft lengths

Thanks, my customer has been under with the tape measure and both props are about 60" between flanges.

the Cummins front prop is 69"!
