Thread: 113-372

Best Wishes Dennis and thanks for all your assistance this year.
Cheers,Mary

G'day All,
Well after work this afternoon in the rain, I removed the F&R prop/shafts and seatbox assembly, what a pleasure to work on a vehicle that once you have cracked the nut (released tension) you can undo the nuts n bolts with your fingers,, love it!!.

Well what has this all got to do with 113-372, everything, because while I'm working on this n that 113-372 stands around like a stale bottle of P*** ..
Once I started removing items off the T/case the problem became very obvious

NO OIL was the order of the day, I have no idea as to where it has gone, it certainly hasn't leaked out, I don't imagine anyone would have tried to sabotage it by draining the oil.
I always tag with NO OIL etc until I have attended the job, so if I didn't fill it then remember them words 'sow the wind, reap the whirlwind', anyway the T/case is U/S big time, look at the input gear, tis Blue

anyway tea is ready at 1730 LOL cheers Dennis
ps a picture showing the "No OIL" tag this one on 113-372 on the rear differential (front would have one as well)

G'day All, I didn't get that much time this afternoon after work, but I managed to remove the T/case, it did have some oil in it, approx 50mls

after the T/case sump was removed, the damage was obvious

it was very growley when being turned I can assure you LOL

the intermeadiate shaft was hard to dislodge, this was the reason why, the inner bearing x 1 had collapsed and jammed the shaft.
This Land Rover had only travelled just a whisker over 200 miles since being registered in 2005, so if by chance I didn't put any oil in it, you are almost guaranteed 200 miles without oil anyway cheers Dennis

G'day All, Well Y.O.T GEARBOX is almost over 15 hours then a new era (hopefully) of no oil leaks, always remember to turn off Ign etc etc etc .
I'm about to take 110-850 for a short run (without floor) before it gets too hot, here is a 41second clip note speedo reads slow, the banging noise is canvas top
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2PVFfc0_A_o"]YouTube - 110 850[/ame]
I'm reasonably happy with outcome,
I drove my 110 last Wednesday approx 90K's with no floor, it was 32c and it must have been 40c inside the Land Rover even with the windows down etc, the 110 clip
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qXMTbujwUC8"]YouTube - 110 no floor[/ame]

anyway cheers Dennis
PS maybe now I might be able to get a few small things done on 113-372, before next big job a complete demolition of S3FFR
PPS It's npw 2111hrs, 110-850 is a complete Land Rover again, I'm off to work at 2200hrs home tomorrow approx 1530hrs, I might give 110-850 a wash then and have a few quite ales to welcome in the New Year cheers (writes note to self 'remember to put Oil in next time') LOL,,.

G'day All,
As posted a few days ago I said I was going to dismember a S3 FFR well it has happened


end of day 1
day 2

day 3

later today around 1400hrs it was all loaded and ready for the scrapyard

next week when the engine is gone (and some smaller bits) I will have the space again that now leaves tomorrow to do something else cheers Dennis

Dinty,
I agree with Digger. You have too many Landrovers.
I think you should let Digger sleep with the gunbuggy.
Just to get Digger all a quiver, I'll type it again

GUNBUGGY

If you get bored and want something to occupy yourself with, you can always restore my 101 for me.

Why did you scrap the SIII?
