Maybe suggest Ludy lays off of the Red Bull at work. You don't need to do everything super fast. A good lad apart from that though.

[@Badfinger7761]

Great to see Mike passing on his knowledge and expertise to Ludy. Wish I’d had that sort of mentoring when I bought my first 2A at age 18. 👍

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Our pleasure!

[@AsAs-qi1hl]

Good work Mike and ludy

[@juliofernandez2442]

I like so much wen the apprentice ask almost the same questions I will ask Please do more teachings whit someone asking you questions The young guy he will be a good mechanic and you will be proud of him like I’m proud of my apprentices I teach long ago Cheers Mike keep the goo thing on

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Thanks!

[@jamesneeson5692]

How lucky is Ludy.....I hope he appreciates his opportunity.. hopefully he'll slow down and listen.

[@harveysmith100]

I have one of Mike's famous dismantling tools. I can highly recommend one.

[@simon4525]

Ludy is so lucky to be working and learning with you Mike, a very lucky lad.

[@denisscott1134]

Hi Mike 👍 just saying thanks 👍 great video as always thanks again 👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@sheepdogman1]

Ludy a little heavy handed

[@davepearce6359]

Extremely interesting to watch, thanks Mike, great to see Ludi learning too. 👍🏻😊

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@MAMDAVEM]

great instructional video format Mike, it's like having you in my own workshop.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Thanks 👍

[@michaelhands1240]

Mike, I learn a lot from these, as your teaching your guys.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Glad to hear it

[@bigm383]

Ludy is on fire, here. I thought he’d be exhausted from yesterday’s efforts.

That will be the drugs....

i keep having to tell my kids slow down take your time ps take that driver of him, give him a ratchet LOL

[@GregPalmer2]

Haven't stripped one myself for a while,love looking and finding things to fix. My lt230 is the early type and l had to drill the new input gear holes myself with a masonry drill. I caught it just in time,the input gear cover plate is a tinny looking one not like the moulded one you guys took of.😁😁

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Must be an early one

[@mickpospiech1363]

When I nod my head, you hit it!

Very entertaining, thanks Mike & Co.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@vincentpoole7588]

Mike. Yeah probably sandwich plate to ? Mine's dumping near the seal and slowly spraying T/C oil up the floor underside ! Might want to re-build it with the Britpart Four pin HD forged cross-shaft too. V

[@altus199]

Just me or are we learning more with Ludy in the shop? Great vid!

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Both!

[@grahamsmith2039]

Ludys a keen young chap

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Sometimes too keen...

[@overnighter]

Fistly, I'm watching preroll ads with excitement

[@overnighter]

And here we go 👍

[@interestedinstuff9601]

Well that was a delight! I'm a few minutes more confident and closer to tackling my transmission. Someway to go before I dare though. Would so love to get rid of the whine and splash from unknown source. Intermediate shaft now a suspect if it's the same idea on a Series 3. The working mate up between 200di and LT76 is not something I want to disturb yet or the PTO/hydraulic spaghetti.

[@123Bilko]

Typical land rover ownership.......if in doubt....get a bigger hammer 👍👍👍. Great to see you performing another masterclass.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Glad you enjoyed it

Stick a magnet to an Allen key and use it to pull out the ball bearing

This is how videos should be made, step by little step. Maybe a little slower. SLOW DOWN LUDY!!!!!!! (LOL). Good job well done lads, from Yorkshire Rob.

[@tomjohns8498]

Thank you 😊

[@BritannicaRestorations]

You're welcome 😊

[@simonrowlands7472]

Great video I am thinking of making a bolt on cover for the end of the inter shaft to cure those bloody o rings

[@MrRobmellor]

All you need to do is stick a rubber patch ( not to stick ), such as a puncher repair patch that is bigger than the shaft, onto the end of the shaft. You will need to cut a straight edge off the patch were it is near the front output shaft casing. OR!! you can blather the end of the shaft and casing with silicone and replace the transfer box back onto the gearbox before the silicone has set. It works every time.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Access would be difficult - a better idea would be maybe 2 x O rings?

[@simonrowlands7472]

@@BritannicaRestorations thats a easier way i can turn the shaft in the workshop, I will have to remove main gearbox because its in my disco also will use viton rings 👍

[@MrRobmellor]

@@BritannicaRestorations YES, that sounds like a better idea Mike. It's me that is a lazy bar steward not wanting to strip the box down to replace an :O; ring. And my way will only work if it is done when the transfer and gear boxes are apart, and put together while the silicone is not fully set.

[@darrenleeson3771]

My only Snap-on item came from a scrap yard!!!

[@BritannicaRestorations]

YES!

[@zingaman101]

You always seem to do jobs that I am about to tackle. Uncanny your timing Mike. We also need to do a Td5!!!

[@davegriffin9771]

Need to buy Ludi some proper impact sockets Mike :-)

[@BritannicaRestorations]

He needs to buy his own tools!

[@dieselhatz4247]

@@BritannicaRestorations 😂😂😂Know that too well.

[@landexta4994]

hi dont be surprised at gunge in any gearbox - i spent a fair amount of time in the wilds of africa inc Malawi and theres a common practice of putting in" heavy "oils in anything, even grease wouldnt surprise me - so it quietens things down/stop strange noises and it has to be said it often seems to - difficult to convince people its not a good idea i did try!

[@BritannicaRestorations]

There is a lot of wear in this transfer box

[@davidwoods80]

Hey, did you mention that the disassembly tool is available in your shop? :-)

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Darn! I knew I was missing something... Lol!

[@lenhornsey2175]

Look back to the straight 6 109 gearbox diss. vids and you may see the original one there! BTW I got one and it's loverly .... protection blade rubber still there!

[@Mikeaubert]

What generates the smoke in the machine Mike? do you buy some kind of special fluid.?

[@BritannicaRestorations]

It is baby oil with a dye in it

[@ArloDahMan]

The 9mm ball is still sitting inside the main housing! And I miss the look inside the differential: What about the dished washers?

[@BritannicaRestorations]

Later video

[@ArloDahMan]

@@BritannicaRestorations I'm looking forward for the next one! Btw I always remove the oil pan first, fit a cutted leftover from a main shaft of a R380 or LT77 to get an idea of the needed torque to let the shafts rotate and about the friction at the moment when they will start to move. This should be done with the drive flanges off! Also it is possible to check the axial play of the three shafts. Next I get the intermediate shaft out and feel the friction of the inputshaft and differentialshaft by hand.

[@gazzafloss]

I couldn't say for sure but Mike I don't think I'd be wrong in saying that the LandRover intermediate shaft "O" ring seals could be one of the biggest failures of British engineering in history...

[@BritannicaRestorations]

I was thinking of a double O ring BUT the surface area would be reduced

[@gazzafloss]

@@BritannicaRestorations mate of mine punched a Welch plug, (slightly domed core plug type), in behind the shaft head, transfer case out for new "O" rings seals and bearing replacement of course. Has not had a recurrence of a leak on the transfer case in 5 years. I'm going to do the same to mine.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

There is not enough space I would have thought

[@gazzafloss]

@@BritannicaRestorations he machined a bit off the end of the shaft, just left enough too back up the "o" ring, it slightly reduced the shaft contact area with the case but it's a minimal loss.

[@jameshargan2786]

Mike do you have to remove the front output flange in order to remove that front housing and access the centre diff? Tvm, j.

[@BritannicaRestorations]

not really - depends what you want to do

[@jameshargan2786]

@@BritannicaRestorations I’ve got a 28d that I want to put in my 110, and think it makes sense to refresh the centre diff - thrust washers, and planet gears if necessary - while it is off the car and relatively easy to access. Front output flange nut is really tight and not coming off without a fight, so wondering whether I need to remove it - but as I say that, I’m thinking perhaps I should be renewing front output oil seal in any event while it’s all off the car. I’ll change the intermediate shaft seal and input seal anyway, - and rear output seal when I swap the rear output housing off the lt230 in the 110. Perhaps you’re just prompted me to answer my own question; need to take it off anyway and change the front output oil seal while I’ve got easier access. 🤔 Tvm. J.
