    As long as the engine is in it's natural torque curve or it'll labor from the lower revs possibly ๐Ÿค”

    You have to replace the shaft and not just the boot? If that is the case, it's madness or some would say progress.

    If your concerned about the diff outer casings, as long as there is no oil seepage they're good to go. Have seen the cars and the rust in the UK that drive in Salt treated roads๐Ÿ˜ต

    Pulling a higher gear may actually impose more stress on the engine. a wider throttle opening needed to maintain speed, thus higher compression pressures. A lighter load and higher revs does no harm. The 2.76 diffs you say went with the 8 speed...

    Clearly you are the first person in history to use a Range Rover for a long journey. You should share your idea so that other people can now use such vehicles without worry too.....

    When you say "it drops to entry height", do you mean it stays up overnight, and then drops to Access or Standard when you start the car ? If so it's not a valve block issue.

    Nevermind, just got of the phone with Auto Sparks, the RHD harness is overall shorter. So I just ordered the last LHD drive one they had. My credit card hates me, the credit card company loves me.

    Don't forget it checks it's own height over the time it is locked. If your parked on anything other than level ground it'll always try to even itself out. ๐Ÿ‘

    If I cannot find out the details of the o-ring (if that is the correct solution) then I will probably have to use the sealant. As it is not leaking massively at the moment I can give it some time to see if someone has the answer. I will also...

    Ok so. you could buy a multipack of O rings and hope you have the right 1 but if not then measure it and put it back in with some sealant to tide you over. Some gearbox/transefer box rebuilders on line show gasket sets which include O rings...

    No. If lpg isn't exactly right (hard to do on a modern log system on an old efi car) you can end up with very hot combustion temps. Brave that it's your only wheels. Been there done that
