The transmission 'snatch' could be either from wear in the transfer box input /output shaft and or the diff (as I am finding out on mine. Just ordered a transfer box refurb kit from Ashcrofts & may need to either adjust or refurb the rear diff as theres quite a bit of play in it

Do you know its history before you got it??? You can get a conversion kit to do away with the doughnut and having a 4 bolt flange in its place. I know Paddock do em see linky below

Thanks for your replies, Looks like I might have 'fun' over the next couple of days :eek::eek::eek::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

This is going to take place next week :eek::eek::eek: I have read some excellent posts on the forum and have planned it out as per the excellent write-ups I've looked at. Disco is up on 4x ramps, fully chocked & I've been under & dowsed every nut, bolt & fastening in shock-unlock ready. Exhaust...

I was thinking of just doing that, but looking at it, it looks like its attached to the body mounting? So I if I cut out the crud would I not need to somehow weld it back to it???

Got cracking on the Discovery again after a 6 month lay-off due to a knackered back, so this needs curing its a 2 inch by 1 inch hole which is on the near-side rear wheel-arch at the bottom where the chassis leg meets & attaches to the sill. The sill bracket is ok, the chassis leg is fine too...

I have the same the same problem with mine, flickering interior light, which now stays on constantly no matter what I do, other than pull the bulbs. Tried all the tests I could, replaced all the door plungers, checked all the wiring connectors & bulbs, even got a second MFU, still didn't work...

There must be something wrong then!!! A Land Rover NOT loosing any oil :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: Sorry, couldn't resist, I've got more leaks than a sive at the moment. But one by one they're getting plugged. Well done that man!!!

Haha!!! Easier said than done, but I got there. Tried to rotate the bolts & BOTH snapped off so I just resorted to brute force & belted the hell outa them & eventually both came out. Talk about stubborn :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad: Took the bushes out next & gave them a good wire brushing ready for...

Well after struggling somewhat yesterday I managed to cut the 2 chassis bolts off and also ended up cutting off the castle nut as that was seized on too. The problem I have no is that the 2 bolts that hold the fulcrum to the legs will not come out :mad::mad::mad: I've tried allsorts to get them...

Thanks guys, I've already got the the part with the bush fitted (thinking it would be easier :rolleyes: ) and have read that thread, but jeez them bolts are tight!!! Looks like I'll have to find me reciprocating saw then :D:D:D

Got to replace the A-frame bushes & fulcrum on my Disco, however for the life of me I cannot move the nuts & bolts A-frame to chassis!!! No matter how / what pressure I put on them they're stuck solid. I've bathed them in Plusgas, tried shocking them, biggest pry-bar I can swing on, but they...

Is it possible to remove the transfer box on its own from my above V8 Disco. I've had a look underneath it and other than disconnecting the gear shift, speedo, handbrake, both props and about 6 nuts / bolts it looks like it will detach, only looking at pulling it off the autobox shaft it seems...

Bloomin link didn't work :mad::mad::mad:

There's one for starters, many more if you google search ;):)

Ah, right, Grrrrrr. I didn't read the spec of the dash-cam mentioned. Mines just a cheap & nasty Lidl one, £30 & 3 yrs warranty. For the price its not bad TBH, excellent picture quality even at night.

I have just hardwired my dash-cam into my car (not my Disco as its still in a million pieces,but that's another story :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:) hooked it up to a spare ignition powered outlet in the fuse box and with the settings on the cam changed to - Only power up when either the...

I hope for your sake it ain't the cream coloured one, new they're about £250. I've had all sorts of gremlins on my electrics and have the unfortunate luck of having the cream coloured one. :mad::mad::mad:

Same here, I've used em and never had any problems with any of their stuff.
