My dad had a 1966 diesel land rover in the same green as this one.i was about 9 years old when he had it.i remember the red&yellow 4 wheel drive select sticks well.noisy thing,but loved the sound of tge diesel engine.it started every time without fail&was deff 100 times more reliable then the modern electronic crap nowadays

Beautiful in the simplicity. No electronics needed!

Thanks was useful, just borrowed a 1958 Land Rover and had no idea why is it going very slow only in 3 gear it was in low range, now works good :)

You can switch from low to high range "easily" because 3rd low range is very close to 1st high range. The tricky bit is timing the shift because the transfer case gears aren't synchronized.

Perfect just what I needed thanks Harry !!

thank you i just inhereted 88 series 2A and now i know what is the red and yellow knob

Just bought one with overdrive. Learning the rest here.

Nice old Landie 👍🏻. thanks for the video

Thanks u saved us

It is a land rover with wonderful specifications ♪

Do u need to push the clutch in when u go in to low range

I never new why I couldn't put the yellow nob down when in low range but now I know

Now throw a PTO or overdrive into the mix :)

Well this has helped

I had an 88" series 2 and have just realised I was missing on something.

Thanks mate👍

My series 3 has developed a problem push the yellow lever down pull the red back and it springs up but the red lever is jammed in the center, Any ideas what might be the problem iv tried reversing but it won't go in to high range 2 wheel drive or 4 wheel low range

my yellow stick is not popping up when the red stick is lowered to disengaged. IS there an easy fix or a major issue? I'd appreciate your help

The yellow knob is 4 wheel drive high range.

Sometimes when I do that it stays in 4 wheel, so what I do is stop then put it in reverse go back a few meters then push red lever forward and then it is fully out of 4 wheel 😊just a little tip there

The reason it stays in 4wd is transmission windup occuring when 4wd is engaged when traversing hard road surfaces. Your technique of reversing a few metres helps relieve the windup and then disengagement becomes easy.

@@78a67h hi there, my yellow lever is not popping up, I'll try driving in reverse next week when I get home to my land rover. What is transmission windup? is a common issue or I have to replace a part so it wont happen again. I'll appreciate your help.

@@aavenderr Your yellow lever should pop up when you pull the red lever all the way back, as shown in the vid. You must know that on Series LRs you should only use 4WD on loose surfaces eg mud, snow, sand, dirt roads but not on hard tarmac. Transmission windup will occur if you break this rule in which case you may lose vehicle momentum and steering becomes difficult or impossible. The transmission components will come under undue strain and bind, but this problem is only temporary provided you stop asap. To correct things reverse a few metres and disengage 4WD. If you keep repeating this mistake, especially for extended periods, transmission components will fail prematurely due to overloading or you may even suffer a catastrophic failure while on the go signaled by a loud bang.

I'm thinking of getting a 1980 series 3 ffr ex mod, but they say it will only go into gear when engines off. Dyou know anything about this or could it be commented to these levers? He wonders if its to do with the clutch going.

whem I put yelow down, i will have my diff locked or not ?

Do the front hubs need to be locked for 4wd to function?

How many gear levers has land rover 109series 2

Commentaire en Francais.Mercie!!!!

very interesting, so in low you're only ever in 4wd, so you can't be low 2wd?

@RB87NL

That’s correct. This can be solved by installing free wheeling hubs on the front axle. But then you need to get out of the vehicle to engage them when you want four wheel drive.

Why start in low range and shift to high in speed? I have a 53 modell and there you start in 1 high like a regular car.

Towing, starting on a steep incline that goes onto the flat. I've done this many times as the gas station was lower than the main road

So why do you need the yellow control? Can't you just slap red into low range if you suddenly find yourself needing it?

Yellow engages high range 4wd. In normal road use the vehicle is only in high range 2wd.

You cannot shift from Hi 4wd back to Hi 2wd (yellow knob) on the go! But you can in a Willys Jeep and this is an advantage over the Land Rover configuratuion.
