ALL NON TECH REPLIES WILL BE DELETED TO KEEP THIS THREAD ULTRA USEFULL !






Was thinking it would be good to compile a list of tool sizes for specific jobs.

So here goes:-

Hub Nuts - 52mm Socket

R380 Filler Plug - T55 Torx

R380 Drain Plug - 32mm Spanner

LT77 Drain Plug - 24mm Socket

LT230 Transfer Box Drain Plug - 17mm Socket

Good thread!

Radius arm to chassis nuts = 30mm socket
Radius arm to axle nuts = 24mm socket / spanners



I hope I've got those right!! I'm pretty sure that's what they were on my defender. Now I'm wondering whether that's a universal size for all coiler LRs!??!

2.5 NA crank pulley nut 41mm

Steering box drop arm nut 1 5/16", no idea what that is in new money.

1.3125" or 33.3375mm

wheel nuts 27mm

wheel station to axle front - 14mm closed end ratchet spanner fits well despite different head.

swivel to axle bolts on a late coiler, the ones with the 14mm(9/16) double hex bolts.


Another sugestion would be 14 mm double hex socket for later brake discs.

And a really good quality (cos they round off easy) 13mm double hex socket for later brake callipers.

Thread size for slider type diff guards on disco - 3/8 BSF.

Freelander cv/hub nut 32mm kin tight

Freelander bleed nipples 11mm /14mm

full set of star thingy's toques needed as props held on them as is steering rack.

ball joints 19mm
steering rack joint 19mm
steering rack star things
engine mounts throw away and build your own.

wheel nut for freelander 22mm

Rear Axle Ball Joint - 30mm Spanner

Series hub flange bolts 3/8"BSF or 19/32"AF.
" Half shaft nut 5/8" BSF
" Spring Shackle bolt 13/16" AF
" Spring Shackle nut 7/8" AF
" Metric U bolt nuts 19MM AF

freelander oil filter housing 36mm

UJ flange bolts 9/16" or 14mm - but it's a bit tight.

Wheel drive flange bolts 9/16" on RR, 17mm on Defenders

Good word 'Flange'

Si

propshaft bolts 3/8unf
v8 crank pulley bolt 15/16 or 24

Oh yeah hello to all I'm new.

Thought this was a useful reference so now pinned...
Mark

300Tdi crank bolt 27mm (and its "fully" tight )

Wading plug holes bell housing and timing belt case 1/4" BSP, same for series 3 bell housing.

300Tdi rad and thermostat housing plastic plugs 1/2" BSP ( for both of the above, brass and iron plugs available from plumbers merchants and larger B&Qs)

6 bolt pas box drop arm nut 36mm
diff pinion nut 1" af
freelander petrol k series cylinder head bolts E12

33mm fits Danny

What vehicle ? IIRC the 110's rear Salisbury nut is bigger probably 32mm, but don't qoute me, as it was ages since I had to swap the oil seal in mine.

Salisbury pinion nut is 32mm.
Salisbury crown wheel bolts 19mm a/f.
Salisbury differential case bolts 19mm a/f.
Salisbury bearing cap bolts 19mm a/f.

1991 110 Def: Nut on front of rear diff (Salisbury), behind/inside prop-shaft flange, is 32 mm.

300 Tdi.
Sump plug : 19mm spanner / socket.
Rocker cover bolts : 13mm socket (ratchet spanner for the back one on Disco!)
Auxillary drive belt tensioner : 15mm socket / spanner.
Tappet adjuster locknut : 13mm.
Heater plugs : 10mm deep socket, 7mm socket / spanner for connecting cable.
Thermostat housing : 10mm socket.
Crankshaft pulley : 27mm socket.
Wheel nuts : 27mm socket.

110 CSW with self levelling unit.

The A-frame ball joint nut is tucked away in the casting with very little clearance. After trying 3 different sockets, I found a Tengtools bi-hex 30mm socket fits. No reference number I'm afraid, but it is matt silver (not shiny chrome) and quite stocky!

A couple of common ones,

V8 Crankshaft pulley bolt …. 15/16 A/F

V8 oil pump bolts ……….. 5/16 A/F Ring Spanner (12 point bolts)




Ian

Defender, but I assume virtually any Series or 90 / 110 / 130

Transmission brake adjuster nut on drum = 17mm spanner or socket

2,5 n/a & 2,5 TD
diesel filter banjo bolt - 16 mm
injection pump bleed screew - 8 mm

90"/110"
swivel house filler 11 mm square
swivel house drain 10 mm square

land rover diffs filler 1/2" female
land rover diffs drain 1/2" female

LT77 filler 1/2" male
LT230 filler 1/2" female

Disco 300Tdi.

Rear suspension upper link bolts = 1 3/16" AF socket.
Upper link to ball joint = 19mm sockets both sides and can be vey tough to split.
Rear suspension trailing arm chassis mounts = 1 3/16" AF socket.
Rear suspension trailing arm to axle = 24mm socket.


300Tdi rear caliper bolts (12 sided) have an m12 thread and do not fit 200Tdi axles, they're too big. Need 1 size smaller but in Imperial, if that makes sense.

Stu.

Axle, gearbox and transfer box breathers (Banjo bolts) are 9/16 AF or a tight 14mm. These can be replaced with much better fittings from your local hydraulics/pneumatics store. Thread size is 1/8 BSP. I'd recommend elbow swivels.

300 tdi belt tensioner 15mm
Type R winches - 3/4 Hydrolic hose nuts 27mm

Would be a good idea to add the torque setting for each. No idea what the above ones are.

Si, I like gusset just as much as flange.

From post 3 -- "2.5 NA crank pulley nut 41mm".
When this bolt incorporates the dog for the starting handle the size is 1+11/16"AF.
43 mm appears to be the nearest Metric size
Expect this socket to be 3/4" drive.
