landrover598 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Any ideas how to get the transfer box off the back of a defender gearbox I've removed everything attached to it I've removed the 4 bolts from the rear, and the two bolts from the front But it will not move at all, not even a mm I've been trying for over an hour now and it will not budge Is there a trick to getting it off ?

pugwash Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 what gear are you in? try putting the transfer box in neutral, or moving it in and out of the gears have you released the hand brake- could have bound on maybe? i reckon you would have a bit of difficulty getting it off anyway (i did last imte i took an LT230 off a 5-speed box- can't remember which one it was)- try rotating the input shafts to free up the movement. what are you taking off what anyway?

landrover598 Posted May 31, 2006 Author Share Posted May 31, 2006 This bit certainly isn't It came off nice and easily once the remaining bolt was out. As i said, the 4 bolts from the back and both of the two from the front are out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pugwash Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 is there any movement at all? have you hit it with a large hammer yet to induce some movement? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
