Hey guys, I did an input bearing on my D3 transfer case the other week. I pulled the Transfer box out, rebuilt it using new bearings and seals and guided by the guide on the Range Rover forum. Took some photos along the way and I'm 99-100% sure its all went back together nicely and as it should. I reinstalled the box yesterday and filled the oil up and re-fitted all the other crap I had to remove. Took it for a test drive al went well, no more noise. Then not long after I was manoeuvring around the driveway on full lock and there was a terrible juddering noise and clunk which I'm sure is the centre diff winding up. I think I may hopefully just have to recalibrate the box, Man was I deflated when my rebuilt box started making these noises!:( It was also accompanied by a suspension fault but I did replace two front struts as well. Or it may have come about from the Transfer issue, not sure. Why are these bloody things so technical.....
WRT the clutch motor on the side of the box, can anyone confirm that it doesn't need to go back on the same spline or anything silly like that? As in, can it just bolt back on in whatever position, pretty sure it can and it'll move itself accordingly. Pretty positive that everything internally went together properly.
