  1. No, that took a bit of finding in itself, I'll have another look for it today and put the link on this thread. I only thought to look for it after reading on Richard's chassis website that the NAS 90 and 50th anniversary used the same chassis. https://www.usermanuals.tech/d/land-rover-defender-90-110-nas-parts-catalogue-rover-manual/index/49
  2. Thanks Ralph, turns out it is none of those part Nos. Found it, eventually, in the parts list for NAS vehicles, part No NTC 9241
  3. I bought an exhaust for mine from a well known supplier and the final section was indeed longer, but that was for a V8 As far as I am aware it was only with the introduction of the TD5 that Land Rover started fitting low grade stainless exhaust components.
  4. Does anybody have the part number for this item, please?
  5. your best bet might be to get in touch with Ashcroft transmissions in Luton. They will be able to give you definitive answers
  6. I was so concerned about the lack of pressure on my V8 that I fitted the prv spring from a MG to mine. The oil pressure even with that fitted never gets above 30psi, prior to that it ran at about 15psi
  7. Think when I did mine I had them blasted "gently" if that makes sense? Stripped them completely first, removed the sliders from the rails and everything. Painted them with some red oxide primer that I managed to scrounge from work, we used it to paint steam pipes, then sprayed with satin black. Rebuilt them with new foams and covers, from Exmoor trim, that was umm 10 years ago and all is still good
  8. the Land Rover One_Ten parts catalogue covering vehicles pre august '86 is your friend. Only available on paper as far as I am aware. It only lists one transmission brake assembly despite listing various gearboxes and Transfer boxes. Page310 back plate AEU2733, drum FRC3502, shoes RTC3403, adjuster 37H4558L, service kit for adjuster 8G7019L, expander AEU2734, service kit expander AEU2735, drawllink AEU2736, shoe return spring 2off FRC3234, dust cover 515466, plate locking 515467, plate locking 515470, plate spring 515468, bolt 2 off AEU2737, washer 2 off AEU2738, screw fixing drum 2 off SA108201L, oil catcher FRC8093, bolt transmission brake 4 off AFU1400
  9. On page 68 of the military defender parts catalogue, it has details of the escape hatch
  10. I fitted Garrison seals to the sliding Windows on the front doors of my One_Ten about 8 years ago. Easy to fit and still rattle free
  11. agree with the evaluation of hammerite.
  12. probably a speculator and the vehicle will never turn a wheel again
  13. The seals were specific to the early One_Ten models and were modified with the introduction of the WOLF model in military service. They differ from the series variety in a couple of ways, all intended to keep water away from the fixing studs. There are drainage channels in the seal at the mid point and the stud locations, there are also small pieces of closed cell foam which are positioned within the seal, again to keep water away from the studs. Why the desire to keep the studs dry? Because they rust enthusiastically. Given all of the above waffle, the door tops can be swapped between the 2 types of door (series and early One_Ten) so yes the series seals should fit There have also been 2 varieties of stud, a plain version which is 10mm dia for its entire length and a waisted version which is a better fit in the lower half of the door There is a link to the relevant page from the parts list, here.
  14. If you struggle to find it, try Honda dealers
  15. ! am with NFU and they had no qualms about a list of modifications that is 4 sides of A4 long
  16. Does anybody know if any of these are still in service, please?
  17. If you are seriously concerned about temperatures there are solutions available. First is the A/M laser thermometer, for a few pounds they are a very good tool and enable you to take spot temperatures pretty much anywhere you can see. Not that I really needed to know that the temperature of my drivers footwell was 55 degrees last friday but it was interesting. Equally, the temperature of my hubs was 39 degrees, not essential to know but interesting, the engine? Bang on the money at 82 even though the temperature gauge was showing a higher value. Then again it is a 35 year old Land Rover instrument which simply gives an indication rather than a specific value. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Etekcity-Lasergrip-Non-contact-Infrared-Thermometer/dp/B01AT9TM3M/ref=sr_1_2_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1533208287&sr=8-2-spons&keywords=laser+thermometer&psc=1 There are gearbox oil coolers available for the LT77 gearbox and you can buy an enlarged sump for the LT230 which increases the oil capacity by a litre and incorporates cooling fins
  18. I remember when working at Cummins we would assemble the cam followers by putting the receiver part of it in an oven and the securing pin for the roller in liquid Nitrogen. Even then it was a press fit
  19. Drat, I was going to buy a case of it, lay it down for future consumption
  20. That is where I have seen them, I had a Dutch 2.25 diesel Lightweight. Oddly enough, the place I bought it from still has some for sale. http://www.ljacksonandco.com/index.php/search-results-by-description/article/11518
  21. More R380 http://www.wrightoffroad.com/images/R3804.JPG This shows the R380 tunnel reasonably clearly https://forums.lr4x4.com/topic/5009-defender-clutch-fork/ and now for the LT77 equivalent. http://ebayapi.loc8apartltd.netdna-cdn.com/00/s/MTIyNlgxNjAw/z/ROwAAOSwgApW~qx2/$_1.JPG
  22. This shows at least part of the R380 tunnel, you can (hopefully) see the difference at the bulkhead end.
  23. That looks like the LT77 tunnel. The R380 has a plastic tunnel and a flat gusset plate at the front, where it meets the bulkhead. The R380 tunnel also has another, smaller hump, near the hand brake lever which yours does not appear to have Yours looks like it has an aluminium tunnel and a humped gusset plate
