I’m having a struggle finding the filler plugs for the diffs on my series 3
ive got a nice collection of plugs, about 12 at the last count, but none seems to fit my diff filler hole, measured it with the callipers at 8/10” or 20.5mm in new money but buggered if I can find a plug to fit
ive tried part numbers
608246
235592
but these are too big, anyone have any clues about what next?
oh, while I’m on the subject of filler plugs, is the drain plug suppose to be sitting proud of the diff case or flush with it when tightened?
many thanks for any assistance rendered
regards
Matt

xychix, if you do want to get rid of those parts let me know, i'm sure we can sort something out
-
cheers for the advice guys, the hella route does look very attractive

aaaaaaaaaaaaah
so how do i get from the engine bay to the gearstick, I must need an extra cable then do i
-
so how does the wire know that the car has gone into reverse is there a connection to the gearbox or something
-
ok, I'll look into that further, dont get why its in the engine bay though
-
nope, dont fancy that at all

Hi Guys, thanks for all the help on this, i'm pretty sure from what youve been saying that the white/brown is to the oil pressure switch, that matches up with my thinking,
the Green, Green/Brown circuit is still baffling me though
Im reaching that stage in my restoration, you'll all be pretty pleased to hear, where I'm jumping up and down screaming "Fuc**ng Land Rover, why can't they just do a manual for everything without leaving out all the Optional Equipment"
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!
Everyone reaches this stage don't they?

I’m just in the process of restoring my series 3. Fitting a new loom to it and reached a point where I haven’t the foggiest idea where these wires go. Any help would be appreciated. The first wires are positioned on the loom near to the brake and clutch housings. I’ve taken the wires for the brake earring lights across and to the resistor for the glow plugs and appear to have these left over.
the second one is on the main engine harness and I haven’t worked out what to do with that one yet either but I’ve circled it in red

Whilst I’m begging favours has anyone got a pic of the route that the brake pipes take on a 2.25 diesel dual line system, master to slave, can’t work out where it goes round the accelerator mechanism.

Thanks for the thoughts guys, I’m trying for completely stock and I appreciate that everyone hates the vacuum set up but I’m trying so fingers crossed. Has anyone got the dimensions of the bar though?

Good Morning,
I'm not sure if they 100 % complete
( eg. I know for sure that in my printed ones include also a winch mount for the WARN 8274...)
There are various "Optional Equipment Catalogues" around.
Below some of the ones I have.
(please note I do not own etc. these manuals...)
2020-06-05 = LR Series II + IIA Optional Equipment Catalogue.pdf 3.87 MB · 5 downloads 2020-06-05 = LR Series III Optional Equipment Catalogue.pdf 4.52 MB · 3 downloads
Arjan, you beauty, that's exactly what I was looking for. my series 3 has a servo assisted dual line brake system, the servo, and the dual line system are shown in the standard parts catalogue but the vacuum system for it isn't, god bless land rover! this has it spot on thanks
-
I don't suppose anyone has a pdf copy of the Optional Equipment Parts Catalogue for the S3 cant find one anywhere
-
Thanks guys, thought it probably was, just wasn’t 100%.

I’m rebuilding a 2.25 diesel swb series 3 from what is basically boxes of bits. Just looking to route the clutch pipe. Am I running it under or over the bell housing?
cheers for any help

The rear floor is awful and was made usable by a sheet of 3/4 plywood. Good stuff as well ! Here it gets chopped up to make a wood sandwich with a 1.5mm ally filling. You can’t touch this grade without annealing, so it gets some heat and a bashing. I use every clamp I have. This is an overpanel because the wing maybe wrecked, but it is spot welded on securely. I am thinking of dabs of body filler to stop the outer panel drumming?
HI Team Idris
Just been doing some work on my rear tub and found this stuff particularly useful
https://www.frost.co.uk/aluninium-epoxy-paste/
having cleaned up some electrolytic corrosion i used this to patch it rather than filler, but of course it could also be used to bond your panels together to stop rattling

Not sure, could be, its the part that came from Paddocks

I thought that was how it might work, a bit like a tin of sardines

Hi Gazzar
i bought the one in the parts catalogue part number 11820L but I haven’t the foggiest idea how it’s supposed to fit. Any clues as it’s a bit baggy at the mo

Hi Gazzar et al
All brake pipes now fitted thanks to your advice, don’t suppose that you know the part number for the short bleed nipples do you?
