ajh Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 So I'm trying to put a set of doors together and have gotten to the point where I put on the handles and hook up all the linkages... and have identified at least 4 different push-button variants when it comes to the door locks.. is there a reference out there showing which parts go together... the new door handles I got when I put the smaller of the lock variants in place have excess end-play which they don't have in other handles that look identical, and then there are two variety with a larger lock bore both of which are incompatible with each other. I'll probably be able to cobble something together that will work this time, but for future reference it would be really nice to be able to just order all matching parts and not have to deal with this extra BS.

western Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 only ref's to door handles I know of are the parts info upto & including 2006 Td5 vehicles http://lrcat.com/31/4/52671 2007 vehicles onwards http://lrcat.com/30/4/44826 IIRC 300tdi & Td5 & later use the bigger lock barrel/door,ign key , earlier use a seperate key for door locks.

ajh Posted May 30, 2014 Author Share Posted May 30, 2014 This is why I'm confused as to why the barrels fit into the old handles but not the ones that came from Allmakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Brock Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Early lock barrel on the left, later on the right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMB Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 IIRC 300tdi & Td5 & later use the bigger lock barrel/door,ign key , earlier use a seperate key for door locks. Have yet to replace my lock barrels, so cannot comment on size, but can state that my '98 300Tdi has separate door and ignition keys and is near enough factory standard. As one of the last 300s, it may have been more of a bitsa than most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CwazyWabbit Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 Fairly certain the bigger locks were fitted on the post 2002 defenders so if they were on a 300TDI it would have to be a ROW spec one and even early TD5's would have been small locks. EDIT: Knew there was a thread on them http://forums.lr4x4.com/index.php?showtopic=64861 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
