Gromit Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Your post is a tad hard to read, but the LT77 doesn't have any core plugs. Noises under load could also be from the transfer box. Does the noise happen in all gears? What does it sound like in low range? My transfer box made lots of noise until I put some oil in it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Range Rover Blues Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 I've no idea where the disk came from but I doubt it's the gearbox. Core plugs are a result of the process that aloows the cylinder block to be hollow for the water jacket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
