Its will be a good laugh bit gutted I can't make it but I gotta get on with my offroader while I'm on a roll before winter hits and I get Feck all done. Think of the long game plan but I really am gutted I will miss it!

Honestly guys it'll be a goodun! not quite punch event but all sorts. mainly CCV RTV Tyro and from the phone call I had at our pub meet a treasure hunt all kinds of motors does not need to be ARC legal but must be safe.

Well... I got an auto gearbox and transfer box and a manual gearbox... only thing is that it looks as though the bellhousing is different size to the one I took off... in fact it is several inches shorter...

They are all supposed to be from a 200 tdi... any ideas about the discrepancy?
 
auto box and disco lt77 and r380 will be the same lenght ,r380 has slightly shorter bell housing than lt77 as rear extension housing is longer on r380 ,defener lt77 is obviously shorter
 
ryder you reckon your old box was an r380 as james says the bell housing is shorter but overall length and importantly the transfer box position should be the same
 
I realise it's not a landy,

or even a 4x4,

or even a diesel,

but it does have a turbo, this is my new toy :D

Looks like you are still busy at it Jai... Kai did the water pump on the Chrysler today. Had to help him to move the auto tensioner but apart from that he had it sorted! Now we can drive without over heating every five minutes!
 
What's a clutch damper? Looking at one on ebay where I was trying to find a replacement clutch assy to order... found a clutch damper but do not recognise it as being anything I have removed from my vehicle!
