Mesopotamia! flown in there...

A piece of removable Flex Pipe should get used for that exhaust . Or simply re-route it . While the Gearbox is OUT , ALWAYS do the Clutch . Well done with the repair . Indeed , a BIG job .

D90 and RRC the good car.

We did Greymouth , Hokatika, Fox Glacier, Wanaka and TeAnau, what beautiful country it is compared to our homeland Australia. We would love to come back again and do some of that. Wonder what the hire car company would say doing it in a hire vehicle.

Whereever theres a Blackadder in that area, there's gold to be found. Rumor has it that old man blackadder had found the motherlode somewhere in there, but took his secret with him, as do a lot of people.

Ok anyone know of someone that works on Rover V8’s… I want mine rebuilt

Happy to see you have a heater are you going to try cowshed hut

Do a time trial to see which of you gets through there the fastest. That would be worth a subscription.

I have a 69 series 2a I’m doing a vw tdi and Jeep ax15 5 speed swap on. Your videos have really motivated me to get it done and get out and have some adventures. Love the videos.

Awesome videos. Do you think a snorkel is a must for these tracks?

Driver error. The new Defender can spin circles around the old Defender. Also the driver was just not equipped or knowledgeable on its use let alone having the necessary recovery gear and know how

The lack of variety in the fleet is disappointing. Toyota, Nissan, Isuzu, Suzuki at least would be good to have in the pack. Funny to watch those old school British trucks bouncing over rocks with car like travel and firm bumpstops. Looks uncomfortable. The wife's 100 series landcruiser woukd piss through this track though, so that's good to know. Most of the tracks people on RUclips are doing would see it damaged or stuck with the IFS and unprotected sills.

Great photography. Thanks Hayden.

Wow my first trip into there was a vallent wagon and an fait coupe.

Having just purchased a1978 88 SWB lightweight (military) I love looking at you guys taking the old Ladies to the limits. Unfortunately this is all impossible here in the Netherlands due to environmental issues. Keep up the good works.

1 button to push is the ignition button

Thanks for helping a fellow landy owner out 🎉

❤❤❤

What size tire are you runnin

I live where Range Rovers and new Defenders are commonplace, yet most of their drivers have no idea how their cars work. I went to an off road event where new Rover owners thought they could drive . I recovered more than one in my 64 Series 2A. Also, no buttons.

I found the key to off roading a series land rover was about assessing the amount of momentum required to climb a slope or get through deep ruts . On standard springs that momentum would have you bouncing about the cab. When I fitted parabolics to mine it made a very noticeable difference . A much softer flexible ride on and off road. They improved articulation helping all 4 wheels to stay in contact with the ground .

It's easy if you pull the car forward to this position

Nice one Hayden! Maybe one day I'll have a crack at tinkering with gearboxes.

Hey Folks. Lose the music on the water. You can't beat the sound of water and "bonk" of boat on bank and peace ad quiet.

Good video. Entertaining and informative as usual. Have taken gearbox/transfer box out of my 110 ffr several times on my own. Not an easy task. But extremely satisfying once completed. Next time it will be easier! now go and enjoy!

Good Evening Mate.. Thoroughly enjoyed this video as do I the rest of them... I too had to strip and rebuild my Series 2 Land Rover gear box... Had no Bloody clue what I was doing as I too am not a Mechanics Backside...😂😂 Learned a Hell of a lot and did actually have to call in an Old School Bullet to clip me round the back of my head and help me out... I had great fun though..!! Best Regards From Zimbabwe...

Thanks for the video Hayden! I've always been interested in how your Celica? gearbox was coupled to the Toyota B Diesel and Landrover series Transfer and this video answers all those questions! From what i could see with lots of pausing, its a Landrover input gear with the splines milled out and the centre of a Toyota Input gear pressed and welded in place? Then a custom made rear mainshaft bearing housing? Gearbox Crossmember looks very neat

Amateur 4wder here..would u easily get thro on a/ts? Thinking my 02 prado would be near scraping the walls in the last tunnel..but if the range rover got thro then should be no problem as about same width

Felicitaciones!

Well done mate. Great effort 👌

Wreckanic is the technical name I use. My B motor has a bell housing to the lr gear box. Interesting to see it done different. Not sure which option is better. Also interesting use of hylomar. The forward control build is at cab build stage. Getting exciting. Recent images are on TikTok.

Why that oil spill when cleaning it? Take it to a carwash so the oil will be separated.

What a wonderful and charming group of people and cars. I really like these videos. I watch them with my son and then we pack our swags onto the roof of our Lada Niva and go to the Carpathian Mountains. This is what its all about. Sharing a passion

Good video, would like to say its the first time I've seen moving ground through the footwells of a land rover but 😬

Nice job. Good on you for getting in and having a go. That's the first time I've seen inside a land rover transfer case. Thanks for sharing.

I'm no mechanic I'm also a hobbyist and i find the best way to learn something is to do it. My first major mechanical job I did was replacing the head gasket on my g60 patrol but there is always something to learn when doing things with old vehicles. Not many people show things like this when they are not a professional but its always interesting to watch people learn how their vehicles work.

These 4WDs make a person mechanic 😂

Hello Hayden, What engine and gearbox are you running on your land Rover? I need a Toyota engine on my land Rover as well...

Terrific video, very enjoyable. Land Rover, making ordinary men into mechanics for decades. Keep up the great work.

I had a LWB Series 2 with the old Holden V8 coupled to a Nissan gearbox. Like the idiot I am, I sold it and the guy who bought it wrecked the Landy and kept the engine and gearbox for another project. Well done on the repairs - it was great to see as much as you have presented. Ex Chch guy here, too, living in Canberra.

Hi Hayden, glad to see all went well with the gearbox repair, can't wait for your next drive around the bedt countryside in the world, best regards from a ex ChCh lad now living in Melbourne, PS: That didn't sound too noisy, Les

I've removed several Landy gear/transfer boxes & always take out the floor & seat box. tie the doors forward & use a crane, (rental), to lift it out the door. No crawling around required. In my younger days I lifted one out with a rope over my shoulders & carried the bloody thing out of my carport.

Great work on this. All of my big mechanic projects (and learning!) happened on Land Rover products. But not Toyota products on a landrover. That’s a bit less common I reckon.

Why exactly is everyone around the globe powerwashing their greasy/oily engines and transmissions in their driveway? Because the colors it makes on the ground are so nice to look at? I am not an environmental activist driving an old land cruiser myself and these things are oily and greasy enough when driven - no need to make an extra mess and blasting everything in the soil. 🙄

I've got no mates and struggle by myself , also keep forgetting to video if for my weak channel 😅
