What i have is a FRC9460 intermediate gear cluster 19-41-38 teeth FTC1741 HI-gear Thin teeth 34T FTC1084 LOW-gear Thin teeth 40T This is what ive gone with , THIN Dogs hi/lo .... im just hoping ive got the correct pairings

Yep the dog teeth on the hi/lo gears

Maybe someone can help with this one . Which are better the early THICK dog teeth or later THIN dog teeth . although its confusing what is early and later , as appears both can be fitted from 1985 up to 2005 , 2005 is new to me lol . and im not sure how true this is but checking pt numbers i think the THICK DOGS were fitted to V8 models , Not sure which way to go . But i have ordered a new thin dog high gear , as it will speed most of its time in high . But i have this niggle though that thicker is stronger and appear as a rule to be more expensive to buy . and maybe it was a cost cutting exercise , but there is little info available .

Hi when i was striping the LT230 diff , the hi/lo selector sleeve and hub got separated , (dont ask) . I know you are meant to keep them as they come off . Will this matter that much , if eg i was replacing one part , and im told to flip them over so the most wear is in low drive . So will it matter , they seem to only want to fit together in one position . ???????????????????

Sorry that was an essay , but all the google and forum searches end without giving an answer . Ive done mine , This is to help others .

Fitted a later td5 pedal box to my 300tdi , don't think can get the older type . Pedal height is now adjusted using the m/cyl pushrod Now is it the 2 lock nuts or the nyloc nut that you adjust move to get the pedal height . Let's assume its the nyloc on the end of of the rod , furthest away from the cylinder . When you set the pedal height and lock all nuts upto trunnion , can you wiggle freely move the Pushrod or is it firm . I've just done the above and its firm , ( I must explain here I've modified the p/box and put the old style pedal height adjuster bolt half way up the box front . Not confusing with the later pedal stop bolt 17mm at the bottom , ) Even if I back off the nyloc to the end of the rod and the pedal is so high it hits the roof . So I set the height again , and as I have this modification bolt which I can set pedal height independently with (old style) I gave it 1/2 a turn in and its given me wiggle on the pushrod . Now ! , If pedal height is adjusted T d 5 type via the m/cyl pushrod only , Is there no wiggle on the pushrod? , no or should there be ? . Can anyone give me the correct procedure to set it up properly , ie adjust nyloc on the end of the pushrod to set pedal height and then run the lock nuts 2 cylinder side upto the trunnion . Theres no clear instructions anywhere on this hopefully this thread will Help others as everyone refers to the old way i.e. adjust pedal stop set pedal height and adjust rod leavening free play , But they don't make that type anymore if you have to replace your old worn one . So please No adjust lock nuts as which ??? Lock nuts , Nyloc nut or the other 2 , simple ommision can cause issues for anyone trying to adjust it . Easy When you know , but assume this is an idiot's guide i.e. for me . is there any way to check pushrod free play ? Or is it simple set pedal heiht and forget , yet some say they have had to raise the pedal height to get rid of clutch slip on this later type . Enough off me .

PCL KF are the fittings on a T-MAX PUMP ,

Plan B then thanks . Have found a T-max connector and have a clip on valve connector and pipe obviously . But now ive made it up im wondering why they put the silly screw on end to connect to the tyre valve ? , maybe to slowly increase the pressure , so if i just connect will it damage the pump . Must be a reason why they fitted that type of end . cost cheaper ???

Old thread revival , But does anyone know the tyre valve thread size , Because you could screw a tail into the silly t-MAX screw-on valve and then a length of pipe onto that with a PCL valve fitting on the end . I still would like to make an adapter for the push connect fittings if it was ever worked out .

Hi apologies for late response and thanks i didn't expect a reply . Yes i removed the m/cyl and servo as i had purchased new ones . And thought i may as well fit them . Luckily i did as the servo although still had vacuum when i removed the pipe (Doh) i forget to deplete the vacuum , Had fluid in it and the m/cyl was wet on the end . Both replaced and now a rock solid pedal at long last . So it must of been weeping for a while . Is it ok to use the servo if needed , Can it be cleaned out and if so what with . Im sure it would get someone out of a pickle if it can be used .

Old thread revival , but was this ever resolved as i have the opposite issue , Mine does go down and i wish it didn't

Hi does anyone know what the pipe fittings are on the T-Max pump , either the thread size or what the snap fitting is . Dont really want to chop the pipe and fit a standard fitting just yet .

Did anyone ever sort out these thread sizes . .????

Wasn't there some issue of the turbo running away ?? . it was some danger of something going pop .
