I wish I had known you when my Classic clutch drive plate fell apart 1000miles from home,had a three piece kit sent from my mate in Litherland,all was reasonably easy until it came to refitting the transfer box,on my own and only the Classic jack, not hydraulic
. Took me a few attempts but what a relief when I got a couple of bolts in.I wish I had known you when my Classic clutch drive plate fell apart 1000miles from home,had a three piece kit sent from my mate in Litherland,all was reasonably easy until it came to refitting the transfer box,on my own and only the Classic jack, not hydraulic
They are a hefty lump but they weigh nothing compared to the jap stuff. The front diff on my old Terrano weighed more than the box and transfer on my P38 combined!

I weighed my spare out of curiousity 112lbs was a bugger to slide under the car,side lift it on to my stomach then arch my back lift it on to the gearbox output shaft without damaging the oil seal.

When I had the box out of mine it all came out as one lump, but putting it back in I split them as the gearbox jack didn't like it lol.

It's like removing a flipping starship from under the car when it's in on piece
Thanks for the offer peeps, the silver scrapper may have to give up its rear diff àswell... Mine has a real good clunk when changing direction. The prop flange when gripped has a long contact time and has a notch feel on the take-up...
227.000mls and off roading is starting to take its toll

You could be right there. I'd like to pull it out and see if I can adjust it maybe... Here's hoping it's not too late.Time for a 4.6 4 pin

Hmmm, too committed for our bus. Our daily driver as well.

you’d not even know it was there till you needed the traction.

Far more likely find a donor 4.6 and cheaper

We've got the traction control built in.. It's pretty good standard tbh. Tyres and height is what's really needed next if I go a little more committed..

Check the TSB. Have you put green Loctite on the shaft splines where they go in the hubs?

If you get one from Ashcrofts make sure the output flange is nicely polished or it just chews through seals and leaks into the handbrake. They must have had some lazy fecker doing it when I bought mine.
