I recently purchased a 99 Autobiography in order to get the factory winch tray and Warn winch to swap onto my offroader.
Car had a misfire on cylinder 7 which we fixed by installing a new fuel injector and known good coils. Then we discovered a vibration in the driveline. There seemed to be some play in one rear U joint so we replaced that but still had the vibration so next checked the diff by pulling out the plug and draining. Two bolt heads dropped out. Not good. A while ago I bought a rear axle from a wrecker so that I would have a spare on-hand. Yesterday we took out the old diff and put in the spare which appears to be in good condition. Just look at this diff we removed. Six (6) bolt heads broken off! How could that happen? Someone over torque them? Very strange. Must have thrown the diff out of balance leading to the vibration. A chip in one tooth on the ring gear and pinion. We fished out 5 of the bolt heads but the 6th is hiding. Hoping the fairly powerful magnet on the drain plug catches it. Maybe we will drive around a bit and then drain the oil again to see if #6 drops out.

I could try using those to prevent my testicles from retracting inside my body cavity working on the boat with no heat in this "cold snap"...

I'm "wired up wrong" according to most people who know me well. LOVE driving in snow...I have always loved snow even from being a kid. Then again some folks have always called me weird

Somebody in Landrover planning was Dyslexic perhaps. ..Ok, We've had the original range rover, then the P38a, then the L322.. how did they figure that out? L comes before P in the alphabet and P is in the middle!!

My 2002 AUDI A8 4.2 40 valve V8 Quattro Sport is ULEZ-compliant... I still regret selling that car.
The Latvian guy that bought it off me is going to visit me during festive season for a blast in it again

Mr Leverage will be your friend with this issue, Kermit. Not familiar with the L322, so can't be more specific...My new to me l322 doesn't have a lifting strap for the spare wheel
Any clever ideas?
