Hello all, just thought I'd post a follow up, nothing worse than people joining a forum, asking for help and never letting you know what happened. The gearbox rebuilders said they'd never seen one so destroyed , not even after racing. All I did was 1000 miles of normal motoring on roads. They've...

Thanks for the latest suggestions. I think I need to turn my attention to the spigot bush as it's pretty unlikely the local garage put the clutch plate in the wrong way round... They are extremely good, know their stuff inside out and the bloke who did mine suggested the clutch kit and is a...

Sorry, been trying to get the combine going between storms and the Discovery is sitting sadly in my yard having just towed it back from the garage with gearbox etc in the boot. Thanks for all the interesting ideas above - very much appreciated. As far as I know nothing's been done to the clutch...

That's the one, LOF powerspec, just looked up what I bought, same as you, I can't see any issues with it either.

Not Ashcrofts but I'll leave it at that for now!

Yes, everything done through flywheel to all clutch components. It really seems to be a mystery... all clues welcome, thank you

Thank you. The recon people sent us a video of them stripping the box that wouldn't select and said there was nothing wrong with it (they also refused to pay for the garage taking it out twice, but the garage are good blokes and let that pass). I didn't hear anything back from them about the...

Hello all and thank you for letting me join your forum. My main reason for joining is because I am beyond confused with the gearbox in a Discovery 2 which I inherited from my father-in-law. Father in law was not a mechanical genius and the Discovery took a few knocks but rarely went above...
