How many clicks until the brake shoes start to brake? If is not the hand brake then I would look after the clutch. All Tboxes have a slack which is around 1/4 turn measured between both output shafts. Puma 110" SW

Same on mine - sounds like a bag of spanners in the Tbox. I've concluded it's probably the handbrake, since the clattering goes if I pull on the lever gently. Doesn't come back for a while then. Really need to be ars*d to take the shoes out one day and check it disappears.
For the time being I will try adjusting it again tomorrow - thanks for the reminder 
p.s. Don't worry - mine did it from new after long motorway trips. Then at around 2000 km it disappeared... then came back around 5000 km. Tbox still works fine at 12,000 km  Tell someone you love them today because life is short.

When dealers swap the TB do they have to re-adjust the handbrake as it seems from previous threads that this problem could be one and the same!

Definitely handbrake, adjustment by any decent LR mechanic should sort it.

Ok the wife took Rocky back to harwoods today ref clunk clatter and the had a look and said it was the handbrake which was over tight and slackened it off a bit and told her that should sort it
But because it only did it after a long run we won't know if it's fixed till next week when we are in the new. Forest so fingers crossed It's good to be back from the dark side DC110 -2012 Black with black hood and black x-tech FFRR 4.2 vogue Renault traffic auto PT crusier convertible Laika x700 Motorhome |

So mine, tightened "correctly", still does it
However, if I pull the handbrake whilst it's doing it, it stops for a while - hopefully clear evidence that it is the handbrake and nothing else. Since mine does it tight or loose, I am giving up for now since it must be some fault with the internals. I will fit the X-Brake a.s.a.p. Good luck with yours
