Ah thanks thats good to know. Yes that makes sense. The less movement the better. I have inward facing bench seats in the back and I don't want to lose that seating capacity. My wife and I like to go camping with our dog and sometimes we meet freinds or family at the site and its really great...

I actually just use a canvas hold all that fits quite neatly behind the bulkhead or on top of one the wheel arches, I then just bungee it to hold it place. It worked better for me because I realised when I needed it I could just lift the whole thing down rather than climbing in out or trying to...

Morning all, I want to put a board or set of boards between the wheel arches in my 90. I know its been discussed a number of times, its pretty straightforward job. Most of what I have seen has been the boards covering the entire width and just sits on the wheel arches. Or angle iron on the...

huh, I didn't even think about that, but yeah I guess so! maybe it's left in from the instructions on the Series model?

Yes, comparable quality to OME I would say. Fits very well. It does say when fitting if everything doesn't line up then you need to adjust your engine mounts. Thankfully mine was good!

Sure thing, that's with it in the engaged position, while I was testing in the garage. When disengaged its pulled down towards the center/cubby box. Its all very neat. Nothing interferes, and you can operate all your gear sticks with any of them in any position. Driving wise, it's a bit of...

So it took me 3 x 4hrs sessions I would say. It is cold at the moment, which things slower some how. The instructions said a typical installation should take 3hrs. Having done it now, 3hrs is realistic if you don't have any issues and have done it before, I think. The difficulty with the...

Overdrive is fitted and working! took it up the m40 and back this afternoon. Very pleased with it. :D Thank you everyone for your advice.

Yeah got them out, took out the dif lock stick casing off, put it in the vise and manged to get some bolt extractors to work. So have been worse.

Yes that is a good shout actually. I will try that first.

Evening all. Success!! so there was another plate that needed to come off it was stuck on there with alot of gloop, didn't see it to begin with! So roamerdrive all fitted and in place. Filled with oil all nice and happy. However, when we came to fit the leaver the screws holding the plate on...

okay, so I have done some digging. I do have a 1:1.4 ratio gear set thankfully. basically, you need to find your transfer box serial number. I found mine on the left of the transfer box just above the oil slump cover, under what I suspect to be a combination of road grim, half the Salisbury...

Hicap Phill and everyone thank you for your assistance. I will keep at it tomorrow and report back. hopefully with a positive outcome.

okay, the mallet will be worth a try. hopefully we can get it out.

okay, we will try again tomorrow. your thread looks good, thank you I will have a read. is there a straight forward way to check what ratio gears I have?
