Cool. Thanks. I'll give it a go this evening and pop up some pics. Cheers

Is that as easy as just undoing those 6 bolts and having a look behind?

Drop the oil, inspect drain plug and oil. WD40 and some scotch bite fit it and keep my fingers crossed. Hope its better than the existing and if not hopefully I'll have raised enough funds to get one of the boxes refurbed

I won't. When lockdown is sorted and I'm back on the road I'll look at getting it rebuilt to have as a spare. I'll PM you when I'm let loose ;)

Ahh. A fair while id say. Still probably going to be an improvement on the current D suffix box in at the mo which sounds like a washing machine full of cutlery when in reverse. Cheers again

James you're a diamond. I double checked it and although selecting most gears, it wasn't going in to 1st or 2nd fully. Put a rag around the mainshaft and then some mole grips. Little bit of force and boom. It gave way. Everything turns, all gears select and both shafts move freely in neutral...

Cheers James. I'll give it a go.

****! Anyway to check/disengage it from being in 2 gears without stripping it?

Right, just been out to garage to try again. Rear mainshaft turns a tiny bit each way about 5-10 degrees and you get the same clunking and loss of movement. When moving the rearshaft the front is moving too. Hope thats a good sign?

Nah, not by hand easily. Tat good or bad?:(

Hi Just got a second hand Defender LT77 and LT230. I've split them and am after your opinions on a few things. Firstly, how bad would the wear on the main shaft be considered? In need of a new shaft, standard for a defender? Etc Secondly and probably a slightly bigger problem the box seems to...

Hi After a 285 75 16 tyre for a spare. Not so bothered about condition as much as cost. Cheap as poss. Near Buckingham ideally, or Kettering Thanks

Hi Jai. Cheers. I've ordered one through Bearmach. Doesn't look like they'll be getting it before the end of March, but also doesn't look like any of us are going anywhere soon anyway. Would you be using them or do you think you could get one quicker? Thanks again

Hi all Im in desperate need or a new or used brake assembly from a T-max EW series winch. Any help greatly appreciated BA2635 is the Bearmach part number and 7329200.4 Is the genuine number i think Cash, favors, beer, collection, courier, I don't care, I just need one. Cheers

Hi. Just wondered if you still rebuild winches in Dunstable?

Think that's the timing case wading holes. Probably got a bit of a leaky seal from the front crank seal. Maybe higher up and running down the timing case. As long as its not ****ing out I wouldn't worry too much. Dont put a bung in unless you're wading though, or it may fill slightly and...

He never replied to any messages when he posted originally. Good luck now!

I can second the trick with a small screw. Done it on about 4 on one door card and works a treat.

Gasket it is. Thanks James
