The dehumidifier will get the water out but it can take a long time.

Oh dear not good. I reckon the tc seal is weeping on mine as I’ve noticed a touch of dex 3 dripping from the bottom of the bell housing where it meets the engine. Might have a oil leak on the engine too done my best to clean up but can’t tell if old oil from when the rocker cover was leaking on @kermit_rr just getting heated up and dribbling down or wether it is indeed leaking again. Might also be leaking from the crankshaft/timing cover seal as there is a bit at the front that seems to be coming from roughly that area. Watched a video on replacing those seals the other night seems a bit involved but doesn’t seem like it’s a particular hard job for the timing case seals.Not a nice job... Fender puma transfer box seals leaking
The tc seal on the other hand I’ve got no way of getting the gearbox off so that will be a costly job for the sake of a few quid bit of rubber.
While I’m talking about gearbox a quick update after topping up the fluid the second time the previous weekend it’s running a lot smoother, used to get a good judder probably the wrong description as it wasn’t exactly a judder but it wasn’t what you would call a bang either right when it changed from 1st to 2nd now that is barely there really I only notice it because I knew it had it before otherwise if anyone drove it they wouldn’t know about it’s become that slight.

I've got an impact socket, but how much stress do you put on a 1/2 inch breaker bar?

Till it breaks
Breaker bars are cheap for what they are so I wouldn’t worry too much, either that or get yourself a 3/4 inch bar that will get them off for sure.

If i recall it wasn't a cheap one
Maybe i need a 22mm socket for my 3/4 breaker
In that case I’d order a socket for your 3/4 and probably a cheapo sacrificial 1/2 breaker bar aswell that way you can use both of needed and always handy to have one you don’t care about for this reason.

I like that your tool kit on the back wall is mostly hammers!Not a nice job... Fender puma transfer box seals leaking
Can't beat a bit of percussive maintenance
Last time I had swollen nuts I had to go hospital which made it worse, I couldn't sit for weeks it the left one was probably a good 10-13cm circumference

That is the special Land Rover tool range. LRT-1-1 through to LRT-999-999. After that it is the grinder.

Does that include the soft faced mallet to 'gently tap' the steering box from the chassis?
