Easy really, lend me your Rangie and ill show you how its done :lol: Funny though, i doesnt mention this in the Haynes Manual... :?
What happened, was it was cross axeled badly on a steep hill, i put her in reverse to come back down or to get her moveing when the N/S/R wheel was clear of the ground then sudenly came in contact with mother earth whilst at the same time came in contact with a imoveable object and the sudden jolt on the running gear when everything suddenly stop moveing caused something to give. Not the UJs not the prop it self and not even the halfshafts were damaged, just the Crown wheel and pinion decided to escape via the diff caseing. But whilst all this was going on DPG and macca was trying to stop the Rangie from tipping over. My mistake ill learn we all have days like this...... i hope. :lol:
Range Rover Blues:
I've heard of halfshafts and the like busting when spinning a wheel that then touches down, but never a diff! Maybee it was it's time.
If you can't get a diff I know a place you can try near me (I don't mean my shed).
Is chapel gate the one with a strip of tarmac no wider than a 'G' string? If so I remember that one, my a**e was gripping the seat going up there, and it looks worse now in your pictures. Maybe we should go up there and shovel that tarmac into the troughs before someone really comes a cropper.
