Take the circlips out of the hardy spicer get 2 sockect one big enough for the cap to be pressed out in to and one narrow enough to press the cap the other end out then put it in a vice with the sockets on each side, tighten the vice the narrow socket presses one cap in and the other out in to the wider socket. Then flip it over and do the other 2. Refit is reverse of dismantle smile

I've done a cavalier but it had only one circlip and came apart nicely once removed.
My haynes manuals the same.

A Landy is good till you own one ! could you imagine doing that job in some remote jungle or somewhere ? probably not, so thats why the rest of the world have toyota hi lux !

Na ya want a Maverick/Terrano narrow enough to be used round town, but with enough ground clearence to bounch its way over the roughist of terrains, couple it with a bullet proof engine low purchase price as they havn't seemed to catch on and enough space in the back to store an average family saloon you can't go wrong biggrin

I wouldn't change from Landrover for the world...... it goes across fields, through hedges, kind of over ditches, into the deep mud, out of said deep mud.... and still gets me home again..... lol.
Now..... show me a bloody BMW X5 that can do that......

Huh! Fine! See if I care.....and I was nice to you in the early V late thread as well.
I'll just go and sod off then. Just how many other birds do you know who can/would lift & hold in position a gearbox (Espace- not a mini!) on their own with there hands and feet from under the car in the dirt?
Well, without looking like an escapee from "prisoner cell block H".
