Gearbox mating problem

<< < (2/2)

ben_haynes:
i find if you put the Bolt in just tight then start it up it pops together, although i have never had a problem mating them and have done loads

Range Rover Blues:
Rather than grease I like to clean dirty splines with a wire brush but I agree with Andy, don't be tempted to use bolts to pull it in, unless you are sure it's going to line up it might be worth checking the clutch plate.  I sometimes use bolts to help line the bellhousing up but I usuallyt find it's a battle of will that I win by the skin of me teeth.  The last one we did my mate climbed up on the engine hoist and jumped on the damned thing :lol:

Next time it comes out it's going auto.

andyb:
@RRB Yes I would clean the splines too. I realise re-reading that that isn't what I said but what I meant  :D

the best thing i found was to get someone called Chris 9119 round because he loves that sort of work and he is the best  :^o
