Playing with the brakes again.
Appears the flexi hoses have collapsed, both on RH front, Primary on RH side, Rear.
The LH secondary bled up, and gave one brake.
I now know how they work, and which nipple bleeds what system.
Do you think my local Repco or AutoOne, would have them have them????
Thanks.

If the ends are "common" then you only need one the same length off anything??
When you overrun your ramps, with no brakes.
Following wire from starter motor. seems to run back to the front and back in through the firewall ????
Found the panel in tunnel to get to the switch.

second attempt. [thumbsupbig]
now for a good look under the Rangie, including damage from overrun
Rocksliders, steps, fuel tank protectors did the job [bigwhistle]
Pulled tunnel cover off and discover linkages and Park/Neutral and reverse switch.
Quick clean, and a Play with selector, and still nothing on ohms reading, but was guessing it was some kind of Earth switch.
Knew which on was Reverse Light, As I looked to see Reverse Lights on.
Then putting it in and out of N, a few times, noticed the gauge flicker.
Suddenly had good reading on N. I wonder, brown wire back on starter, flick of the key and it started [biggrin]
Would start on P, but start I N then off, to P and started. Guess switch was sticking, after 10 years of standing.
Now starts in P or N.
One rear Number plate light to sort out. RH high beam, Brakes, Ball joint clean and new boots ( In Tool Box) then REGO ????

Great job! Love your investigative skills!
LH head light working.
Relay woken up. Can they 'stick' through lack of (10yr) use ????
Also did rear top shocking bushes.
Pic to come, soon.
Don't you love the split pin method. used my tool I made for my series.

As long as we learn from our mistakes. Under estimated the small throttle blip on the 4.4, and the 'level' top of the ramp [biggrin]
Strange feeling when you go from up to level, so quick.
Found a pipe and banjo fitting, above gearbox, and suspect a nut fitting in the engine bay, connected but black 'Vacuum' tube.
Notice no rev counter. Was it to the 3.5 Rover V8, or gearbox, for a Rev counter or something else.
Threaded Bell housing hole. Wading Plug ????
Also 'Bad' gearbox ID pics..
Thanks for the replies.

Hard to get 'good' gearbox pic.
What do you need to see to ID it ????
