Changing Gear Knob and Stick
I am planning to change the gear knob and stick for my landy. After consulting a few garages, they reckon to take off lots parts. Any idea what parts to be removed? It costs HKD 2000 (approx. 200 quids) for labour.
appreciate for any removal sequence so that i can DIY.

Which model defender?

on a puma, the main gearstick is a 5 minute job, transfer leaver is the tricky bit...

Puma transfer lever is easy too - sharply pull upwards and off it comes. No need to touch anything mechanical 😉 Instagram: l90andy

If its not a Transit Defender then the gear stick will come out by undoing one M10 nut. Lift the rubber gaiter and you will see it.

He is correct in that you remove the whole gear stick... but it is very straight forward. See the sticky at the top re gear stick rattle.

As for the transfer lever, it does just pull up, although you may need to pull harder than you think you should, it will be fine.
