Frax Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 This is a great link by gruntus and I used it a lot in my conversion. http://forums.lr4x4.com/index.php?showtopic=38064 Most of the point I found to be correct for the 300tdi and required but Point 1= not required for 300tdi. Point 4 = not required as fuel filter is fitted to the wing. Point 5 = threaded holes available. Point 6 = two holes already there. Point 9 = Not required as it is a straight swap. Point 11 = not required as same as 300tdi. Some stuff that is required for a TD5 300TDI conversion. Relay bracket from behind the dash = simple drill out the two rivets and mark up and drill & rivet to TD5. Starter motor fuse box = I had to cut this free from the 300tdi (welded along the top and bottom) cleaned up & marked position on TD5 and drilled two holes in bracket and through into foot well & riveted in place. Three tabs on drivers foot well for holding connectors on 300tdi are not on TD5 but I never moved these. The bulkhead earth wire bolt on the left under brake pipe was not there so M6 Rivetnut was fitted, Bolt for holing relay on right was also not there so again another M6 rivetnut was fitted. Hope this is of some help. Regards Frax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frax Posted May 7, 2011 Author Share Posted May 7, 2011 Thanks Western Just though it might be of interest to anyone doing a 300tdi conversion as I think to original thread was for a 90 of 200tdi. Regards Frax Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
