SpringDon Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Number two but I didn't need to release anything on the engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ditchman Posted April 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Number two but I didn't need to release anything on the engine. it is the method i have used............i made it a lot easier by replacing the fan housing rivets with small s/s bolts...then it is easy to remove it and the fan and pulley...forward 8" then up a few inches...all you have to do inside was take the tunnel off... when i put it back i used rachet straps to pull the crane in......i did think about making 4 extended bellhousing studs that would be used a aliners and guides...then unscrewed and replaced with the proper studs...but it went in first time......

jonny thomas Posted May 4, 2016 Report Share Posted May 4, 2016 In 30 of being a mechanic I've never had the miss fortune to have to do a clutch on a land rover Have heard others say what a pig it is and wondered if it would be easier to pull the engine out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keeper96 Posted May 7, 2016 Report Share Posted May 7, 2016 Easiest way I've found is to undo the engine and just shift it forwards enough to get your hands in and line everything up. Only took the box out to do a clutch once and that was only because the box needing replacing. although I think If you where to split the transfer box from the main box and take them out separately then that could make it easier?
