Not sure whether it represents value for money though.

It's a mixture of bolts, nuts & washers needed and not a complete set, part way through the resto you'd need to order another set then another......

450 parts comprising bolts, nuts, plain washers & spring washers so roughly 110 nut/bolt/washer sets (no idea of individual quantities). Some setscrews may be black not zinc plated. Washers you could buy locally fairly cheaply. Overall I don't think it's good value.

I found that BSF bolts are still made in India. I have a friend (just the one....) who imports from India so I'll get him to look into sourcing and importing. Problem is small quantities tend to be expensive to ship. Anyway I'll try and get some samples.

Is this a PTO? If it is, which part do I need to remove if I want to put on another gearbox? Thanks

If you are fitting it to another LR box all you need will be on the other box, Rear gear box housing & cover plate for were the pto selector fits to the top of the transfer case plus a couple of gaskets. When you remove the rear housing check that the nut on the out put shaft is tight & if it is loose tighten it , you will need a special socket to tighten it & also may need to replace the lock washer.

Yes. You need the bits you have circled including the bit that the selector shaft goes into, the fork, and the dog clutch sleeve.

I can't remember whether the dog that it engages with is also part of the kit or is on the standard input gear of the T/C.
