“Pull it back a few _feet_”. Love it. Ft not metres. Even talking like UK Land Rover now ;-). Great vid.

Maybe wheel a Toyoda chassis under the body and fix it for ever

The suspense is killing me. I want to see the failure.

Roger Hobday says:

Christian and Vera OMG! you guys are like fearless 20 something year old doing it because it has to be done. Body off is definitely the smart move. As for the torque converter I would leave attached if you can until you lift the crank out. By the way have you removed the starter motor yet? If yes is the crank still locked up? Just a thought. I look forward to the following videos. Xo

Uilleam Ross says:

And just one more thing. If your vids show me anything; its, damn, I need a lift!

Uilleam Ross says:

Wow! Having done this with a Series and a Defender, which I'm sure are way easier;' I am uber impressed. So now that you've gotten to a blown motor both ways, which is easier? Just pulling the motor or pulling the body? I would think that pulling the body is probably a bit easier in this case since the motor is locked and getting the gearbox off would be problematic with body on. I anxiously await your progress and wish you the best. And look at it this way, at least your weather seems to be breaking with everything going green. We here in Nova Scotia still have another month of cold, icy sea air (at least), and it is still no fun working out in my shop (i.e. barn).

Paul Smith says:

Another great episode, these two are amazing.

watched the last three videos in a row. One Question: Beeeing such a low mileage, could the previous owner not have the vehicle repaired under warranty?

Johnny Ruppert says:

My wife and I love watching your videos together. Keep up the good work.
