difficult gear change 4x4
I'm having problems with the gearbox when coming down the gears, specifically getting it to change down into first and second.
Anybody got any ideas?
Cheers

Had a similar problem and was looking out for a replacement box until the clutch cable sniped, fitted a new one from Matt Lewis and sorted issue., cable must have been stretched and not disengaging clutch fully..

Thanks Rob, I'll take a look at the cable. It seemed to get worse when the engine was hot!

I'd be looking at the clutch/clutch cable first. As mentioned when i had a dodgy cab;e it lead to crap chages. I also have a broken AP clutch plate that gave the smae symptoms

Thanks Paul, I've had a quick look, it seems the outer sheath of the clutch cable has melted a little due to the way it was routed. I'll go in to Woodfords and get a new one.
Thanks for the replies,
