Buy a tap and tap them to the old screw thread. Avoid Britpart.

Apologies: I'm should have been more forgiving. And less judgemental. I have some good friends with coil sprung vehicles. I don't know their personal struggles, so shouldn't be so dismissive. I, too, would like to know what engine it is.

I bought from undercover covers. It's a superb product. Good heavy canvas, clearly heavily treated with decent wax. I need to soak it a few times, apparently, before it's fully ready.

10 hour job on a lot of vauxhall cars, at £60 per hour. Makes a lot of vehicles beyond economic repair. It's one of the reasons I keep my Landrover.

Doubt it. Mind you, hard to start a TDI with a starting handle.....

Truth. You can get a special snips that avoids this. Or put up it with the blood.

It's one of those modern plastic coil sprung things. A car of some sort. Probably got those fancy wind up windows and such like.

Yes, just replace the matrix. Screws and maybe rivets iirc. Prepare to give the casing a decent coat of paint.

Which series? 2a and before or 3?

I think it was the first major job I did on a Landrover. Tried to pull away at a roundabout and lost all drive. Had the presence of mine to jam the yellow knob down to get moving and prevent an accident. Drove for a few months before I located a new second hand shaft, then figured out how to...

You aren't going to like this. And are at risk of breaking the diff centre pin. But smack the shaft out from the other side.

Yes. Show and tell. Show and tell. Collective knowledge and all that. . . .

That's kind! I ran out of proper blinds pop rivets and used the cheap ones. It's on and I think it will be waterproof. Hope so as I'll be sleeping under is in a couple of weeks time...

Thanks @British Leyland Rover second time I've worked on a tilt. And first time I fitted one! All done. Your help was invaluable.

I had the transfer box on one of mine out this weekend. The high low lever pivot bolts to the bellhousing. The round hook sits on top of the ball, and bolts to the lever. The 4x4 dog clutch release has a pivot on the front output casing.
