Picked up the oil from LR and changed the transfer case oil today.. Man that was satisfying.. dont think the oil had been changed since it was manufactured.

Haven't done the front on mine yet as it's a 14mm drain plug key, which I didn't have.

Should have arrived by the weekend so I'll let you know if there are any issues. Current cars:

yes the front is fiddly! i would suggest an extension and UJ on your ratchet or i used the 1/2" drive handle i got with my caravan motor mover as it has a gentle curve in it which gave enough clearance from the sub frame. Also when you crack the fill plug on the front, i used a 14 mm ratchet spanner on the allen key socket to turn it quicker and easier.

it is worth noting, when changing differentials and transfer box oil to undo the filler plugs before draining the oil. just in case
those plugs are stuck and you end up with empty difs

Good tip Nino.
I hope you didn't learn that from a bad experience. 👍👍 G reg 2.5VM Vogue Portofino red 1991- 1999

credit where credit is due , tks. stan , i could not remember who it was. BB some things are best learned from somebody else experience

Easy to do (just done mine).

5x 10mm bolts to remove the undertray.

It's tight for the drain plug to get the plug key and 3/8" ratchet onto the plug owing to it fouling the chassis rail. Use an extension bar to clear the rail and the get to the ratchet/torque wrench when redoing.

The refill plug is easier to get to but needs an extension bar as well. Current cars:

did you undo the splash bar that's infront of the drain plug? Current:

Nope. Just the undertray to come off. Current cars:
