Clutch Replacement - Anyone got Dealer/Indie Prices?

Hi all, so I have had a small leak around the little breather hole in the gearbox output shaft casing for a while. I'm fairly sure it's coming from here as this is the forward most point of the leak. Pictures are not much help for diagnosing leaks, but for future reference:

Last week it seemed to get worse, leaving a stain on the driveway. I checked the transfer box fluid level, being the easier of the two and found it to be correct. I suspect therefore it either hasn't leaked enough yet (I know it wasn't over filled) or it's the gearbox output shaft seal.

Now unfortunately I don't have the time or facilities right now to attempt this myself. I also have the clutch spring rattle along with a vibration when crawling at tick over in first gear which I guess is the same (not exhaust shield by the way). My biting point is also quite high.

I figured if I was going to pay someone to drop the transfer box to do the seal and check output shaft I may as well have the clutch done at the same time.

I was wondering if anyone could provide some ball park prices, dealer or otherwise, so I have a rough idea before I ring around? I did a search for clutch price but didn't get any with fitting included.

Thanks in advance

I had my clutch done by an Indi last year. At the same time I got them to fit an Ashcroft shaft and replace the front oil seal on the gearbox.

The labour was about £350, I supplied the parts. But Genuine clutches are only about £300 for all the parts from a dealer.

Or if you want a heavy duty quality clutch have a look at LOF clutches, formerly Syncro clutches, ive got their ultra spec kevlar version in mine and its great! better than OE and very light pedal action

zsd-puma,

Who did your clutch and Ashcroft shaft work for you?

Thanks
Darren

Derek Lynch at Old Romney - while the garage its self isn't a Land Rover Specialist, one of their mechanics is.
