Hello all...new to Land Rover, but I have had a few LBC's, so I am familiar with the prince of darkness.
I recently picked up a remuddled 2A that came from Columbia. They did a reasonable job with much of the truck, but in typical low budget fashion, failed to refresh many things.
In an effort to freshen up one of the systems, I pulled the distributor to clean up and possibly replace with an aftermarket.
I used a magnetic grabber to pull the drive shaft and when I did, I saw something else lift up and fall back into the hole.
Looks like the end of a drive shaft.
It has the imprint of the e-clip on it, so I know it was in the hole.
These two surfaces were riding on each other.
I took out the small gear, put the driveshaft in, and the distributor dropped right in and seated well. The rotor does not rotate.
Am I missing something?
