Just the diesel, I think. It can barely handle the torque in that.

Don't know if the 4.0 and 4.6 are different but seen some 4.0 P38 and D2 with manual boxes in them. If this is useless then feel free to shout and sware at me

This is all getting a bit Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. I'm currently expecting something vaguely resembling a Range Rover Classic to emerge from a wooden shed and then climb ponderously into the sky on dragon-skin wings ...

Zen,
Not the easiest to measure as air flow meter in the way but as far as I could measure it, horizontal distance from edge of rocker to turret is 150mm and about 193mm to centre of top damper. (1991, 3.9 Vogue SE)
Vertical distance a bit more tricky because it depends on how much thread is showing above the shock turret. The difference in height between the rocker cover and the top of the turret is 11mm. A rough measurement from the top of the turret to the top of the shock thread is about 25mm on mine so allow say 27mm + 11mm = 38mm so maybe allow 40mm?
In some ways it's a shame it isn't on a RRC that has/had air suspension because then there should be no problem because the front damper mounts are further forward and lower down, on the nearside, the damper is just under the outside edge of the alternator.
