daft question for the day:

does anyone know what purpose the big black rubber plug/bung/thingy in the passenger side of the transmission tunnel serves?

i've been up all night wondering..........

cheers!

If it's at the front it's prossibly for the levers when fitted to a lhd series??

sounds plausable, i'll have to check that! just to add more confusion, i found a ex-military one that has two of the things, one on the side and one at the top!!

thats another sleepless night for me.........

No, even on LHD the red & yellow leavers are on the right. Bloody long reach too.

Sounds like its for an overdrive... But.. then again, which side is the passengers side. Its left hand side for me..

Surely if you use the landy properly then its to let the mud and water out??

ere's a pic's

the gearbox filler access is looking likely, the landy in that pic isnt the best for confriming that tho as the gearbox is mounted in the wrong place......
