Ashcroft has a good summary of common faults. http://www.ashcroft-transmissions.co.uk/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=221 I have a 4 speed ZF Auto and it sticks in first gear in the morning or when cold and is reluctant to change up from 1st gear. Once the gearbox has warmed up it shifts...

An overdrive or PTO lever. What is on the back of the transfer case (if anything)?

CEL for misfire on one bank, disconnected battery and reset. Came back on. Drove it around for a few months with it on (shame on me I know). Ran a couple bottles of injector cleaner through it. Reset it for emission test last month and it has not come back on since. :bigok:

I got one that is beat up and in primer you can have for cheap and I can bring it to MAR.

I don't haggle. I just buy stuff that is cheap relative to its intrinsic value.

I have two brand new 235 85 R16s mounted on disco steelies. I really need two more (or to sell these two).

How does that leak?

I want a scamp.

3ft pipe wrench, heat, PB and spread the split on the joint a bit and it will come off.

You can buy a replacement batter for $18 shipped.

If it is not building pressure, you have a leak somewhere or a bad cap.

No slave cylinders in the brakes .... calipers and wheel cylinders, not slave.

Probably the MC or at least that is where I would start. $135 from George at RDS (show on his website) but if he is out of stock RN should not be much more. Lucas/Girling Brake Master Cylinder Early 110 NRC8690 $135.00

Got it. Good deal, thanks.

Other ideas: http://www.pangolin4x4.com/pangolin4x4/products/hitches/hitches.html You could weld one up from your stock tow hitch. Likewise, you could make something similar to the RN piece with a bit of 1/4in angle and a stock series tow plate.
