learned how to drive on a 1958 , Landrover, when i was 14, myself and my father did a lot of trout fishing , in Newfoundland Ca. many memories , I am 66 yrs old now , still love the Landrover
Nice to see the yellow and red levers tied together with a genuine rover elastic band. As all rovers from the fifties to the eighties are obliged to have. Mine included.
You may have the later transmission where the third lever selects 2 or wheel drive. Or could be overdrive, could be winch, could be PTO. Get underneath and see were it goes.
The first 80" looks neat, but not all original if it is an 1949/1950 model.. Is it the "lights behind the grille" Landy.! I could only see the 2 x later wiper motors, and the turning light (flicker) control arm. Eary models only had one wiper motor, and the switch for the flickers were on the hooter/steering centre.. Or am I wrong.. Just checking... Love the 4 wheel reverse lock, first time ever I have seen it... Only know about "the yellow knob". Thanks for a nice video.

First time I hear about the 4wd design with the free-wheel in those very early LRs. It looks to me as a very bad engineering concept. I must wonder why Rover did not just adopt the Willys Jeep 2-lever 4wd system which is superior in concept to anything LR has designed since.

Clear and concise video. Thank you.
I've been familiar with the 4-wheel-drive system on a Series Land Rover since I was 12.
Nice one👍
Just subscribed as well 🤝🏻💪🏻
We like too much the land rover
I have a third lever by the seat…. What is it for?? Thanks

Doesn’t the transmission wind up if it’s in fwd all the time the power is on?
Yes if you are on tarmac. Just reverse a few feet to unwind.
Es fácil manejarlos, debe aprender a sincronizar cambios y hacerlos suaves para no quebrar la flecha corta
