Hi Guys I'm normally in the series and defender section but I've just purchased a 1983 3.5 V8 Carb Range rover and I was thinking of removing the centre silencer for a bit more throaty V8 sound, is there someone who makes a straight through pipe to replace the mid box ? Is it with it ? Has...

Do you have a steering damper on by any chance and is it gas one ?

Well I love my land rovers and I'll keep them for as long as I have breath, but my name's on one these, this is what land rover should have made, I heard from a friend in the forces that has been testing one of these and that they are planning on putting a order in for them, I think LR has...

the thin centre one moves but the outer one needs tapped with a rubber mallet to put it into 2 wheel drive, its now stuck in 2 wheel drive, when it was stuck in 4x4 i couldn't move the red lever it was seized solid but if i pushed the yellow knob down the red lever will move forward freely but...

Thanks James your defiantly right about the shaft being seized ive taken the cover off and it doesn't appear the shafts are seized behind the tin plate it seems to be in the transfer box its self, could it be something isnt aligned properly inside? and could i get to this without taking the...

yes to be honest the guys ok hes seems a genuine sort of fella and hes being fair, wants me to adjust the selectors, and if that doesn't work he will send a new box out, to be honest its the nicest changing series box ive driven if it wasn't jumping out of gear id be well chuffed with it, I...

Oh dear sounds like box out job, is there a guide to how to adjust the selectors to cure this or is it trial and error? Thought I might as well try before removing the box Again

Hi James thanks for your help with this, I didnt rebuild the box, the guy who did it says it might be the selectors are not set properly and if that doesn't work he will send me a new box, but I was hoping it was a easy fix so i didnt have to take it back out again, Whats your thoughts on the...
