A similar thing happened to me. It turned out to be a split/perished hose that went to the black vacuum bit that pulls the throttle cable when you engage cruise control (sorry for no technical names lol!) I was lucky with mine as the perished bit of the hose was right next to the 'T' piece in...

What have you got in its place J?

When I did mine this way I used a big Blunt screwdriver and a hammer. And just 'tapped' the lock ring round! Make sure you use a Vacuum cleaner to hoover the loose bits of dirt and dust otherwise itl drop into your tank! The pump easily fits through the hole...

For once a post saying how GREAT a Range Rover is! Its a 1996 4.0 SE with gas. At the mo (And for a while now) Im loving my Rangie, I love it for what it is. Its in a diffrerent class to any other car (whether they are the most reliable of vehicles or not) It may be a 'Wollowing beast'...

I can strongly recommend these! Bought a front prop £25 (Very good condition!) free next day delivery (Which it was!) Cant fault them! Cheers Emmotts! :D

Just to compare, my P38 has 255/55 18r tyres ;)

Iv also got a 4.0 SE 1996 and not one in mine either.....

Oh eye i miss typed that, I meant position 11 lol :p Fell better for knowing the VCU is not siezed :)

Update! Wammers I put the transfer box in neutral using the 10amp fuse in slot 10, got a 2 foot hollow bar (which I'm now keeping for future) on the ratchet and it moves mate. Still with the transfer box in N it was very firm to move but once it stated moving it moved quite well along with the...

It was that dry it made me cringe as I know better than that :( Thanks for the info mate I'll post to say how it went! I got a second hand prop from emmots £25 delivered, going to replace both UJ's when I get it and both on rear prop too. Thanks for the info wammers ;)

Ah ok wammers I didn't do that earlier!

Ok mate thanks for that. When I took the yoke off earlier today that had the failed uj attached, it was very apparent that it was dry. It had literally melted one arm on the uj. And the opposite arm had gouges in where the roller bearing had worn grooves into the steel. This is why I'm thinking...

You recon mines siezed?

Ok I'll give it another go. When you say 'transfer box' in neutral you don't just mean put the gear selector in neutral (auto)?

I had it in neutral, handbrake on. Just used a standard 1/2in ratchet and 30mm socket with small extension bar. Maybe I'm not pulling it long enough, put about 8 seconds of pressure on the ratchet. Because it was pulling the socket off the nut I kept having to reset to socket on the nut.
