Thanks for the replies everyone. :-*

...although I hadn`t considered the possibility of a broken case Martin....OMG! :o

I`ll be having a look-see under the Landy tomorrow....I was hoping it would 'just' be a worn gear or bearing that a DIY ("Deb-it-yourself") rebuild might cure.
It`s a 25 year-old diesel SWB Series III so I`m not at all sure which gearbox it actually has. :-/
My daughter friend has just blown the engine on his Landy Series 3 and can't afford to repair it. Its just laid up and is talking of scrapping it. I will ask him if he is willing to let it go for spares. If you are intrested

 :y

Unlikely to be quite so catastropic and still move under its own steam....

I do have one very important bit of advice though Debs... Be very careful when removing the box... They're really heavy!  :y :y ::)

Funnily enough, I always though of them as quite light!

Not to bad to remove as you can do most of the work from inside!

Could be because I was working on a newer V8. And it was in the air and we foolishly removed the gearbox+transfer box in one piece ::) ::)
