<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE</div><div class='quotemain'>how heavy is the Box?? transfer will be lighter.
I might butter up a mate to use his hoist. i prefer my workshop, but i hate doing G/boxes.

Ohh how much room is there around the bell housing? [/b][/quote]

Only removed trans box & remote selector housing on mine. Didn't need to remove the gearbox (yet :roll: ). Many of the UK blokes reckon engine out is the easiest way, but our A/C systems make that pretty difficult.

Speaking of A/C, that'll be a shock when you go to do the timing belt. You'll need to remove 2 head bolts to get the compressor mount off, so that you can take the timing cover off. It's a nervous time cracking open a couple of head bolts out of torque sequence and hoping the thing doesn't warp when you button it all back up. 8O Consider also, the A/C was installed in Aust and there's no way the installer would have replaced the head gasket and torqued things up properly when the A/C was put in. This means it's all been undone and re-torqued out of sequence at least once before already! 8O

Just shows that LR Aust can out-dumb anything Solihull comes up with!
