My shop manual covers 2016 Defender Series HD8 and HD10 engines with electric differential lock and without. The 2018 Defender Series Supplemental neither the schematic nor repair procedures show or reference a reverse chain. I know that the XMR does not come with a locking rear differential option and that the gear box is different, it has a lower low and can be bought with the Smart Lok front differential since 2019?
There may be a different shop manual for the XMR series that would be worth checking? My manuals do not mention the XMR anywhere?🤔
Does your shop manual say how to split the gearbox housing. I have punched a small piece out the housing below the right hand output shaft. Have the gearbox out and full unbolted but it will only separate 1mm.
