Terribly sorry for ignoring the OP.
Attached are images showing the location of the drain and fill plugs on the transfer case. Both are pretty easy to locate and get to. First image is the drain plug, second is the fill. The transfer case is fill to overflow, so you should see a trickle come...
I am not questioning your prior experience Mike, but you continue with the ad hominem diversions.
I believe that you retired before LR3's came out, but I could be wrong. I just haven't ever heard before that LR3's have a history of failed transfer cases (especially based on not changing the...
You didn't answer the question, Mike. I have not heard of a single mechanical failure of an LR3 t-case either. I don't claim to know of every LR3 out there, but if it happened frequently, I would have probably heard of it by now.
What evidence do you have of a weak t-case that's bound to...
I run the Geolander ATS 265/60/18. They are SL, but they're also 110H, which is 2,337 lbs per tire and 130 mph. Both are more than acceptable for me, and I do tow a 4,000 trailer half a dozen time a year. I believe the weight rating is at max PSI of 50... Not sure on that, but I run the rears...
I think the coolant is good ole DexCool. My dealer said it is the same stuff that's in the Disco 2.
How did you drain it? I haven't looked to see if there are drain plugs or lower hoses in a convenient location.
Glad you got the tranny fluid leak sorted out. I didn't see this until now. I had the same issue a few months ago. I simply unhooked it and replaced the OEM clamp with a screw-type clamp. No leaks since. I hate to walk away from small shops without paying, but it really probably took them...
Yes and a qualified yes. Tranny cooler standard. Electrical is a very easy afternoon to add yourself. The hitch is integrated, you'll just need to buy an adapter that drops below the bumper and has the receiver.
You'll also want to consider an electric brake controller depending on what...
This is simply smearing some anti-seize on the flange of the hub that contacts the wheels. Will prevent the wheel from seizing onto the hub and make wheel removal easier. I also smear some on the rotor center (the area where the lug studs come through) DO NOT get anti seize on the rotor...

Link to my photobucket slideshow for this procedure.
30 minutes is the right time estimate. That included coaching my 13 year old son through the process and showing hinm what various...
I did get something out of the deal :) The right rear whel was not too damaged to keep, but the insurance replaced it. I was able to keep the old wheel and get a full size spare. And rather than replace tires with the same, I only had to pay for two tires and got Yok Geloander ATS 265's...
I bought the truck 2 years old... And had no major work done prior to the accident. I don't know for sure what was done before I owned it.
Checking the tie rod jamb nut tightness and inspecting these bolts is on my PM list for the next oil change/tire rotation. ... of course the right...
As I understand it, there is no harm in letting it wait. The condition may or may not be present at all times. The code pops up and the CEL stays lit until you clear the code. The engine MAY run rich in order to come to operating temp faster. That MAY damage your cats with LONG TERM...
I'm going to do this this weekend. The code came back yesterday :(
Question - did you replace the seal on the housing? Or is it basically a rubber gasket?
Awesome. I have gone back and forth in the last day on this. I initially said I would wait and see. But, I am PM replacing my Disco t-stat AND water pump (more of a history of failure and especially overheating on those trucks) with my next coolant change sometime in the next 6 months. Maybe...
... I read the codes at my local auto parts store. It came up as P0128 - Coolant Thermostat - Coolant Temperature Below Thermostat Temperature
So I am thinking two things:
1) do I trust the code as read?
2) has anyone DIY replaced your thermostat yet? Almost exactly one year ago, another...
