    Leaking from differential housing + transfer case (6x6)

    @james martin at the rescue as always :) thanks so much! just to confirm I understand what i need to order on paddock: 1) For the differential housing case (it doens't matter if we don't have the serial number as all the salisbury are the same?): 1 x 607183 gasket, 1 x aeu2515 seal , 1 x...

    Leaking from differential housing + transfer case (6x6)

    Heya, Some info which I was able to put together on the rear axle is that: seems to be a leaking pinion seal. It is a Salisbury axle, not Rover, reccomended to also change the pinion flange where the seal contacts the smooth surface as it may be worn or damaged any thoughts? thanks, Simone

    First check-up after 5 years idle

    lol - I did after i double checked my engine number on the link you provided - 12L is the discovery - 11L is the defender one ;p found these two belts on paddock and they only have 2 options 'quality after-market' or OEM - price is almost 5 times as much... worth it? Otherwise I found the ones...

    Thanks very much - besides the timing belt these 2 belts (fan + power steering pump), are the only ones that fit the vehicle right? so these should be right I assume.. Can you do also some other magic for the clutch repair kit? :)

    Thanks @neilly ! I have 2 belts and in the link I can only find the fan-belt (ETC7939). Do you know which other belt is there? The OEM one is 20 quid, the one from dayco only 3.... which one to go for? Cheers, Simone

    Besides the above, the clutch repair kit I bought is not the correct one (attached - in the Bearmach package) - my mechanic gave me the piece I would need to buy (attached - the one I am holding in my hand) - do you guys know the part number? thanks!!!

    Leaking from differential housing + transfer case (6x6)

    Success...or almost! I found the serial number of the transmission (28D2 89013E) and of the front axle (64I 17310A) and lazy axle (the 3rd axle -42s17124a )... but not the one of the rear axle (the 2nd axle) despite I have scrubbed the whole axle to the bone!! Could it be that as part of the...

    best soundproofing/ insulation ideas? techniques?

    Hi guys, staying in Africa, I am actually looking for some insulation to avoid the heat from engine and from the sun to cook me up ! Dynamat is crazy expensive (and has to be cut to fit), moulded matting system is also super expensive for the small area it covers...

    Leaking from differential housing + transfer case (6x6)

    Thanks @Oldseadog - I tried all the options visible on the link provided but can't find it - maybe because some of the pictures for other variants can't be seen anymore on the website - any other website that has visible pictures to identify where this number is captured? thanks again!

    Leaking from differential housing + transfer case (6x6)

    Thanks @Oldseadog for your reply! - how can I be sure of what is the tranfer box fitted? Is there a serial number I can find? Wheely got some parts changed in his life-time and I'd rather double check and be sure of what he is fitting at the moment. The rear axle is the original one: 1995 110 -...

    Leaking from differential housing + transfer case (6x6)

    Hi All, Last month I changed all the oil of my Landy - named Wheely given the 6 wheels ;) I don't use Wheely often, but last week after it had been parked for a 5-6 days and noticed a big leak underneath - I brought it to the lube bay and had to top-up almost 1LT of oil in the auxiliary gearbox...

    Hey everyone, thanks for all your support, Wheely is now up and running and seems almost like new! I have done so far about 1500km and all seems fine - The next few things I have to change are the following: The 2 external belts in front of the engine - could you please confirm the part...

    Hey everyone, thanks for all your support, Wheely is now up and running and seems almost like new! I have done so far about 1500km and all seems fine - I just noticed that the auxiliary gearbox and the rear axle are leaking oil - I changed it 2 weeks ago and yesterday I had to top it up again...
