Diff Locks Last Stand!
Land Rover engineers designed a completely stupid, illogical, vulnerable, flimsy, cluttered up, zero room to work and down right amatuerish linkage for diff-lock and low box engagement! One lever, dual operation is utter rubbish, flimsy and of such poor design it is prone to selection/deselection issues at some point.
Sadly, the previous owners of the "green goddess" never used low box or diff lock. This left me with an unpleasant legacy which was waiting to go wrong, when I used either or both those features. Saying that, if the man behind this design came upto me and tried to justify his work I would parcel him up and send him back to Japan! He must have been working for a Jap company as a mole/spy. I cannot believe how it got signed off? Maybe he played some cunning cards to sell the idea of dual operation?
Anyway, the problem is not cured yet, this is only part two, part one never got videoed and part three is waiting like a football sized boil on my arse. Having got it out of diff lock, my next problem is to get the linkage working again.
My one size fits all spanner (Fein angle grinder) might make another appearance to exorcise this devil and expose the entire linkage for me to see the extent of this cancerous problem on my gearbox.
Apologies for the swearing but my patience x frustration x restriction x access x poor design = A short tempered, angry and dangerous DingleZilla!
At least you know what you have coming if you don't use the levers or if the thing is stuck or you have similar problems to mine.
