This weekend I am going to..... replace the front drive shaft and fuel pump myself.

I feel that after reading, and re-reading and reading over again the information on here, and elsewhere I can do these jobs

Will let you all know tomorrow afternoon/evening how it panned out.

Thanks everyone for the information and tips. All very much appreciated.

Haven't done the fuel pump yet, but I'm rather familiar with prop shafts now

Simple job, 9/16th socket, a small extension and a spanner in the same size.
8 bolts. You leave the ones at the transfer case end in and just put the bolts back on them and nip them up.

The chirp also comes from the needle rollers seizing and grabbing the cups and turning them in their hole, then the hole flogs out and even a rebuild won't do any good, the yoke end needs to be replaced.

Well this morning I replaced the fuel pump and the Front Drive Shaft.

All in all took me about two and a half hours to complete.

Was happy with what I did today. Next weekend I will do the FPR

Again thanks everyone for their advise.

Cheers

Land Rovers: Turning ordinary men into mechanics for 60 Years... or something like that

Well done on getting those jobs done.

Great news

You should feel proud some more D2 insight confidence level raised some pennies saved

D2 scare some folks but with a few tools and a bit of research most common jobs are simple.

Just to keep me on my toes,

Bessy decided to flash me today

More to the point.... while driving home from work, the M & S lights started flashing.

Got to an intersection, switched her off, and back on, and lights went away, and didnt come back for the rest of the trip.

XYZ switch was replaced a couple of years ago by the previous owner. Not sure if aircon overflow tubes were extended though. Will be looking at that on the weekend when I do the FPR.

Check the state of charge and condition of your battery, low voltage can cause a host of issues
