OK, I just bought a 96 and I knew when I bought it the dif lock was frozen up, but like the hero I am I figured I could easily free it up with some wd40 and a little muscle. WRONG!! I have been on it for over a month and it no luck. I believe I will have to go to plan B, except I dont know what plan B is. Should I try to access the shifter box from the top? Or can I drop the whole thing down and disassemble on the bench? Based on my experience so far I dont think it will free up without being disassembled. Any ideas much appreciated, Thanks. SeanMcD

I just did it. Get a workshop manual it's not too hard but time consuming. You have to access it from the center console inside the truck.

Get a workshop manual. One forsale on LRX.COM

ok, Thats what I thought, I do have a workshop manual(Land Rover) but I still cant decide if I need to drop the box down, or just do it from the top?If you would just give me a few pointers on where to start? Do you need to remove the driveshaft in order to drop the box? Thanks for your help.. SMcD

It's attached to the transmission and would be MUCH easier, but still time consuming, to access from the top.
