You is a true Gentleman you is, helpin out a fella like that and keeping ya kool an all too.

gees, just as well we're not attempting a rebuild!

yeh, flog the crap outa it, works for some.:p

must be cause those f oooken big Scottish gnarley maulers you got on the end of your upper limbs, get the lil lady to do it for ya then:p

I did say set spanner as first statement, shifters are not that good on small dimension nuts, but the viscous nut is large and if a shifter rotates on it then, you need to invest in a better shifter, or adjust it correctly.

your reasoning is a valid one, though generally it is only the feed-in bevel on the teeth that wear, it is also wise to check the pinion drive of the bendix for wear and replace if necessary.

Just get yourself a strap wrench, (plumbers type) it can be used for many other things so will not be a one-off use, put it on fan pulley and use a set spanner of correct size, or a shifter. No wacking required, no risk of flying spanners and best of all, no skinned knuckles, and it'll be a lot...

and put ends with grease nipples back on so you can keep em greased and be a long long time till you have to do it again.

I have never had a problem removing the ring gear from any flywheel, so that it can be rotated, just place flywheel on clean flat solid surface and with a good heavy drift and lump hammer, work your way around the ring gear, round and round untill it's off, I have used this method as it is...

have you had a couple of fellas rocking it back and forward while you try to disengage it.

was just a suggestion to get him going forward. A series 2 I had about 30 years ago used to do similar, it was only used in the bush so not a problem, it would some times get locked in first and other time reverse, by putting transfer into neutral it came out every time.

Coil or Coils?

Most likely the dipper switch on column is buggered, it is easy switch to remove and test. trust you to be different, generally squeeks disappear when its raining and damp. No it will not be your swivel pins.

did you try putting transfer box into neutral, then trying to get it out of gear.

steering damper will not correct worn steering components, they are to dampen hard knocks when off roading mostly, and the odd crater in the blackstuff when the council's get slack.

No. 1, if you buy a P38, you will never be outa here.:)

if you had an additive in the oil before hose blew you may be OK, I pour a full 1lt bottle of morrey's heavy duty into mine at every oil change to reduce wear and just for such occasions as you have experienced, never know when an oil line gets ripped or broken in bush, it won't protect it for...

Bloody castrol must be dumping all there dot 3 and other sh 1t, "into our market then," ba stids.

Ah, the risks we take to get our landies sorted, thats only minor compared to some things her gadgets get used for, all par for the course isn't it:D. seriously though, if you mark the worn bit of ring gear position on flywheel befor you remove it then put it back on so the worn bit is away from...

maybe you still got a minor crossover of a lead somwhere causing that, little bit of dampness under bonnet from sitting over night causing correct conditions for sparks to jump maybe, as it heats up moisture gone, just a thought.
