Hi guys,

The sump on my disco needs replacing. I've got the sump and rtv sealant, but I've been put off doing it after reading the proceedure in the haynes manual. Is it necessary to remove the trackrod and damper, or can the sump be removed by simply jacking the chassis? I know I've got to get it passed the pick up, that's what's putting doubts in my mind.

Cheers,
Lew
