I have removed the lot, cleaned and greased the splines of both the propshafts and the VCU. The whole assembly will now take about twenty minutes to replace before next winter. Meanwhile the VCU sits on my coffee table and I wait for the inspiration which will make me very wealthy (hopefully before Ming) when I figure out how to make this thing selectable from the drivers seat.

And when it happens how many people will say "Now why didn't I think of that"

Examples:

Cats eyes
Rubiks cube
Solar garden lights
Clackers (remember them?)

All of these simple things sold by the million. Can you think of some more examples? D..

Hi All , what about replacing vcu with an eddy current clutch ??? SOMSHOW

clearrock · Apr 8, 2008

My Hippo's getting castrated, there taking outs its manly bit (propshaft and all that). VCU must have dufted befor I got the thing and at the last service the Transfer box oil was all silvery. So Save the £800 on an new front diff and 2 cogs and have a momento of what it could have been like hanging in the garage.. Note to check next time ... what colour is the TB Oil? and does the VCU have a part number label on it?.. hey LR says 'Lovely off road' trouble is got to go on road to get off road these days.

clearrock · Apr 8, 2008

Hey ... that is interesting... got any more thoughts

sandgroper · Apr 8, 2008

Looking around the net there are a shat load of shaft coupling devices , but not sure how the drive train will handle them in place of the vcu.

It was looked into at least a year ago - here and here and here.

the most likely choice was one of these. There is a guy in Tassy that was making up a mechanical dog clutch (Ian1).

Did yu ever meet him, Dearot? I think he was supposed to be coming over to the UK this year.......
