Started yesterday on pulling the engine (300tdi). It's almost ready to be pulled. Today the goal is to get the auto transmission and transfer case out. The main pulley and crank have a chunk broken out of them. So the engine comes out and we'll be replacing the crank. Also the plan is to put the R380 manual transmission and LT230 transfer box from a 300tdi disco. The transfer box is about the same gearing ~1.2, but the gears look good and figure to change while we're working on the other stuff. The old transfer box will be kept in case I want to regear to 1.4.
