Nice, Doka's too! Oh now I want a 404 again... Anyways Elie, you'd have to be more specific as those two axles have nothing in common. An overlooked axle from the Mog world is the "clamshell" type from the 411 or 423. These are narrower so nobody wants them, but in reality once you've made disc brake conversion and fitted the large mud tyres you want they have the perfect width for a Land Rover. You can get these for next to nothing and they are constructed just like the 406/416 axles and equally strong, just narrower

For sure if I ever get to it! Knowing my luck though, by the time I'm done the snow will be gone and there won't be any for the next 10 years Dammit yeah, should've done the Cummins swap instead of the V8

Cool stuff! I want me a snowplow too!

Oh and that top commercial Arjan posted is Danish, and indeed I've seen some with the fixed side window. Probably fitted to vans

Hi, I don't know of any RRC specialists here really, but if you put up a post on dlrk.dk which is the one and only Danish Land Rover Club I'm sure someone will guide you in the right direction 👍

Great stuff as always Dave 👍 Will also be nice for Those running portals 😉

Oh my, I wonder why 🤔 Could it be the AG Tyres? 😆

Not bad for a complete door really! If you have ever lifted a RRC door of you know what I mean 😂

Out with the old, in with the even older 😂 going to run this engine as the cam in the other one is knackered due to running without oil pressure. Started this one up before removing it from donor, it sounds good and has oil pressure so can't really be any worse 😎

So the gearbox turned out to be completely destroyed.. what to do? Found a rusted out donor in the neighbourhood and towed it home. The last couple of days has been spend taking it apart and saving what I need. Always sad to see a classic British icon being scrapped, but I hope that with this company it was laid to rest properly:

Here you go page 13 and a bit onward

Indeed I do! 👍 Well a refurbed unit from rimmerbros is 708£ add about a 100£ for shipping and another 100£ because I wont deliver one in return and thats what I'm willing to spend and the specialist

My girlfriend was lovely enough to give me helping hand removing the gearbox today so we can drop it off at the specialist soon. Usually I would take the time to take it apart myself and learn how it all Works, however being a motorcycle mechanic this time of year equals hectic and long workdays:

Would definitely be an upgrade but would actually rather have the bomb proof TorqueFlite 727 but in both cases modifying the car to suit would tale more time than I want to spend. And with the torquetube design space is Limited

Haha yeah would be awesome! Anyways my great fear is that it turns the box cant really be made stronger and that it is a weakness (the internet kinda tells med it is) because then I'm not sure I wan't to fit the 4,6 😟 wouldnt really enjoy it with a gearbox made og glass 😮
