Just checking the fluids for the first time on my newly acquired S2A and could not find the transfer box fill plug. Thanks for this!👌👍

Do the transfer box and the gearbox share the same fluid, I ask because I just added an overdrive and replaced the transfer box fluid. I had just replaced the gearbox fluid a few months ago. I could just check to see if it is filled to level.

No they normally all have separate reservoirs including the OD so you now have 3

What size are the square oil filler plugs and what did you use to remove them? The transfer box filler refuses to budge and I'm afraid of wearing the head without the right tool. Thanks!

I think it's a 1/2 square drive - but please check in the manual - do not use metric on an old Land rover as it will likely round off. Needs to be a tight fit.

Moles ad a blow lamp. Just to make sure it comes out. Then replace with a new un buggered one

Hello, I have the same issue on my 65' S2 but on the rear. Does the new distance piece go back on easy or do I need to press it on? The old one is only slightly worn but I have it all pulled apart and figure I should replace it.

+choda42 Yes they should if you warm them up a little just push / tap on gently you can use the big bearing spanner to tap them on flush LAND ROVER WHEEL BEARING HUB SPANNER 606435- check its the correct way there s a bevel lip on the inside edge Even if it is slightly worn that can still be enough to leak at the seal if you have it apart it is a good time to change it.

Makes sense to change it now. Just have to wait for the parts to ship from the UK. Thanks.

I think these were Merlins out of Benson, due to leave the field I think they were practising there goodbyes!

I like the pressure bottle idea. I'll use that, as I have a spare sprayer with a broken nozzle.

Hi David I see no issue with top filling and I think some do this. I tend to use the factory filling points as this puts the oil straight into the correct reservoir position. Some areas especially in the top of the box may be expecting only a very fine oil spray, as the bulk of the oil will be in the bath below. By filling through the top the incoming oils path may take a large volume of oil into areas its not expected or designed to be. Just my thoughts Ian

Looks much easier without an overdrive in the way, haha!
