That gearbox / transfer combination is fecking heavy.... I did mine on the drive, on my back, and I struggled. I used an engine crane through the gear lever hole, and a chain, plus a heavy duty jack.
The ball njoints themselves are relatively inexpensive ...

Not sure if this is allowed on this site but feel it’s only right to share where people have helped us discovery owners when we are in desperate situations:
I’m on holiday and I hit a pot hole just outside Penzance which tore off a newly fitted...
I know you can adjust the diaphragm setting and star wheel for low end boost, my diaphragm was already set to what most people seem to go for I.e about 1o'clock position. I don't need any low end boost, it's just top end im after but I wasn't...
Hats off to u mate and can’t thk u enough
Is becoming clearer as u progress seeing the pictures, know for a fact I would have got myself in a right mess due to lack of knowledge
So pleased it’s in ur capable hands my friend , is that what u...
Check your breathers and pop the drive flanges off to see whats going on! This is exactly what I've been dealing with recently on the front axle of my 1988 110... totally blocked breather seems to have forced the oil from the axle out the ends...
I think the wrong master cylinder is causing the problem.not allowing full contact of the clutch.
If a slight bit of pressure is still applied it could be causing the juuddet.
There must be slack in a LR pedal for correct engagement. Has your...
Its coming on mate, made the wheel arch repair out of three pieces so far, small piece of channel to make at bottom, used cardboard templates, then doing repair piece for the centre cill, would have to be the back part were it tapers, inner cill...
When you do the fronts you may need new shocks & turret rings on the shopping list.
Same process as the rear(remove roll bar if there’s 1) stands under chassis, remove panard rod can make life easier.
Removed the cover off the top of the injection pump and the boost diaphragm is immaculate with no holes or splits whatsoever. It did have oil on top however but I suspect this is from years ago when my head gasket failed and the engine ran away...
make sure the stands holding the chassis are strong.. raise these up so you can get a lot of droop.
Remove anti roll bar(easiest is normally at the D rubbers )
Trolley jack up the oposite axle & it should drop the axle low enough to remove the...
I'll need to get the top off the injection pump and check as I think that's all it can be now. I'll blow through the fuel lines and make sure they're clear, after that there shouldn't be any problem or blockage right up to the filter so the...
Pressure looks fine. Thats not been tweaked.
Is the boost pin seized?
Could you rig up a small fuel tank under the bonnet direct to lift pump.will rule out blockages from main tank.
I hate these little faults which are hard to trace
