Was thinking of getting this from YRM for repairing the first 2 pics, worth it? http://www.yrmlandrover.com/epages/BT3575.sf/en_GB/?ObjectID=1543672

I got the feeling that I'll be calling somebody rather than doing it myself :)

Decided to take the seat box out to make it easier to get the gearbox back in. Went well. Till I seen this :( Looks like a bit of welding is in order, I've never welded a chassis before :p

I had the seat top off and the tunnel and somebody was in the can with a rope around the bell housing to keep it up, I was under the car just tugging it along, it came flying off, fell off the jack and into me, defo a learning experience. I really gotta invest in a hoist.

Will do bud, even tho it weren't as hard taking it out as I thought I just don't want to do it again anytime soon as it fell off the mountings onto my chest lol. Kinda hurt.

That did cross my mind but the new one I put in still looks perfect and the car ain't been driven at all with it in, all the forks are sitting perfect on it.

Ah ok, I'm not sure on the terminology, thanks bud, I just ordered 6 new bolts to be sure there all correct. Taking the gearbox out was actually easier than I thought.

Could it cause the clutch to not go in when the engine is running?

Ok the gearbox is out and all everything is stripped, the bell housing bits looks fine, but I think something is up with the clutch cover Of the 10 or so metal arms only half are pulled in straight, the other half are just like they were before I fitted it, sticking out a little, I did notice...

Some random pictures :)

Well I've disconnected the drive shafts, removed the exhaust, handbrake, speedo cable, reverse cable and diff lock cable and took off the gearstick and diff lock stick I'm going to be taking it out tomorrow or Wednesday. Is this doable by 2 peeps? As I don't have a transmission jack. Also...

Sadly after replacing the master cylinder I still had to clutch, I even put a bit if square metal over the slave cylinder with a small socket in it to stop the piston going up to far, pressed the clutch and the pedal was rock solid, sadly that means the problem is not between the cylinder and...

Yip, it's on the top, just checked. :)

I'm pretty sure the bleed nipple is at the top lol , I'll need to check

I had an order from Brit Car leaving tomorrow morning so I called up and added a new master cylinder OEM to the order, I'll keep you posted. Out of interest what else could cause it?

It does yeah thanks, I'll order a new one and see how it goes :)

There's reservoiris still full, Can the master cylinder be gone without it leaking fluid?

I've recently changed my clutch, fork, release bearing and slave cylinder and I've got no clutch atm. I bled the system till no air was coming out and I've now got some resistance on the clutch pedal, tho not much resistance till I've pressed it over half way down but still cant engage gear...

Just waiting on a few bits and bobs arriving then I'll be putting her in for an MOT
