LUMPHAMMER 324 Posted February 5, 2012 Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 Try pressing the ''Clutch'' only ''half way'' down then select gear ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dymented 2,220 Posted February 5, 2012 Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 the transfer box must be stuck in neutral bud Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RossM 7,979 Posted February 5, 2012 Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 Or the clutch is completely f****d, start it in gear, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
irishnut 297 Posted February 5, 2012 Report Share Posted February 5, 2012 sounds like transfer box in neutral. would't be strange for a landy gearbox to totally crap, but usually give plenty of warning. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hily 379 Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 sounds like transfer box in neutral. would't be strange for a landy gearbox to totally crap, but usually give plenty of warning. if it was cluncking as you pulled away before you got the problem then it is prob the output gear in box splines stripped but check half shafts and hub splines first Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Night Hunter 109 Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 has he checked that all the drive shafts are ok and that one isnt broken,this happened to my sons car and on inspection one of the front driveshafts was broken and the stub was just spinning Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Clare 33 Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 sounds like transfer box went in mine, dont get ripped off on a whole new gear box though! just drop out the transfer box and replace, takes a few hours and a bit fiddly but we did ours for £100 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dunkanon 380 Posted February 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 thanks everyone for the replies will let you know how we get on after weve tried your suggestions. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jack lee 137 Posted February 6, 2012 Report Share Posted February 6, 2012 try looking at front half shafts,could be broke at the ball joint,if it is that just put it in low range,if it drives then you know thats it,if not try looking at slave cylinder rod, could be gone through fork on gearbox, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
