Re: Stuck in 1st.

Part number is 622387.
It is a white rubbery washer.
Just had to fit one to mine as they harden up with age and break up.

Have considered a 5 speed yes, but with the crossmember needing replacement too I want to see if I can find a good four speed and keep costs down.

Was also considering NK Recovery who has an MOD recon listed on his site.

The 110 has been dormant for a while so just sorting it out now. Rear crossmember full of holes so its all go this spring for the landy!

LT95 gearbox wanted

No laughing at the back. I would like a good LT95. Mine is suffering from: - Noisy layshaft bearings - Oil leak at rear output shaft (to be fair that was my fault) - Excessive play basically everwhere. It is now awful to use, but it was pretty awful 5 years ago so I can't complain. I want to increas...

Hi,
That's one of the most thoughtfully produced and useful things I have seen posted on an internet forum.

Thanks for offer.
Unlikely I will be able to get up to you within a month though!

I have actually decided to order an engine from a breakers that I have been recommended. They do a 1 month guarantee, so we will see what its like. If it turns out to be any good I will post the details here.

Noel.

Engine wanted

Due to a spontaneous oil pump failure followed by a sump full of swarf and broken metal I am in need of a good second hand engine. Any 3.5 V8 considered - stripped engine would be best as I can transfer over my good bits. Would rebuild, but don't have the space. Anyone have anything? Southern half o...

Hello, here's a quick tip on this subject learned from hard experience.... If you do change the fuel pump, make sure you use a proper Land Rover spec pump (which is actually a Facet pump). They should cost around £70. Don't use the often-advertised fuel pumps at about the £30-40 mark. These ones are...

mud terrains are (so I'm told) good off road. I use General Grabbers and these have noticeably less road noise than mud terrains. Learnt this from an A/B comparison done with a friends truck with mud terrains. He's thinking of changing them as he's fed up with the road noise. Depends what you use it...
