I have used the links in this section to try to find the part number of the black christmas tree fitting for a black head lining but I can only find gray ones. Could you please point me in the right direction ?

[ls3 v8 discovery 1]

you need 40 gallons per hour at 60 PSI any less and the ECU does not like it

[ls3 v8 discovery 1]

I used this pump

[Wolf parts]

When new the Wolf used the standard 300 TDI Defender air filter housing. The larger Donaldson filter housing was a army mod for desert use so I do not think there is a L/R part number

[Wolf parts]

ALR6842 standard

ASB710360 winterised

I think the only difference between a wolf wing and a standard 300 tdi wind is the holes for the pick head mount and finding one not drilled for an aerial

[Salisbury Build Tolerance]

Rakeway will do what you want to do. They are making me an adaptor for a six speed box to a LT230.

[Salisbury Differential Re-build Questions]

I also have some rubber boot thingy that was in with the diff parts is this part of it?

If the rubber boot thingy is the thing in the bottom right of your picture I would say it is one of the grommets that hold the demister hose to the top of the heater duct (but I might be talking rubbish)

[24 volt 2.8 TGV alternator]

Good evening

I am half way through fitting a 2.8 TGV into my defender however I need it to be 24 volt. The glow plugs starter motor ETC are no problem I used wolf parts. The alternator has the vacuum pump built into the back of it. Can I fit a 24 volt regulator in place of the 12 volt one? Is it that easy? If not where can I get a 24 volt alternator that I can fit my vacuum pump on to?

Thanks for your time

Cheers Rob

[Up dating my old Defender]

The bulkhead in my 1986 90 is quickley dessolving so I need a new one. Can I fit a TD5 bulkhead with its dash and wiring harness so I can have central locking and electric windows? (with the correct doors). Is it plug and play or will ECU s get in the way?. Any other problems that will trip me up?

Thanks

[Gearbox oil level on a wolf]

When I rebuilt my Wolf gear box I looked for a long time for a answer to this question but could not find a answer so useing the assumption that too much oil is better than not enough I removed the reverse light switch and filled the gearbox untill oil ran out of the hole. I then drove it untill the oil cooler pipes were hot let it cool down then removed the filler/level plug and let a small amount of oil run out to the correct level. BTW it takes a long time to get the gearbox up to temp think I did about 50 miles hope this helps

cheers Rob

[101 forward control]

No just get it

[Caster angle]

Thanks for the info it has given me something to think about and thanks for the pm s where could I find a axle drawing?

Thanks Rob

[Caster angle]

Thanks for your help but I am having trouble getting things right. Does anyone have any advice for getting the front axle in the right place? I have spent days trying to get the angles right before welding the mounts on. How critcal is the 3 degree caster angle?

Thanks again for your help

[Caster angle]

Thanks for that but I do not have any mounts on the chassis I should add this is an project that was started by someone else that I am trying to finnish it will hopefully be a coil sprung 101 when it is finished so is my way a sound way forward ? Is there a better way?

Thanks Rob

[Caster angle]

If this would be better in the defender forum please move it.

Hi all.

Is there a better way of checking caster angle?

I have a empty axle case with the balls bolted onto the ends and a round bar that is a good fit in the bearing holes I am planning on using this to measure the caster angle which I think should be 3 degrees

Would this be the best way of doing it? and is 3 degrees right?

Thanks Rob

[Bigger brakes]

Ehm, this is a joke right?

no. no joke i want better brakes to avoid killing me or someone else

Are you fitting a nuclear reactor or a V8?

V8 (yank)

Why do you need bigger wheels to go with your huge engine?

I know (think) I will need bigger wheels to fit round the bigger brakes

If you are intending on invading a country let us know which one and we may be able to help.

invading a country????? where the hell did you get this from?

I have talked to a north west tuning company who do 365mm ish discs with bigger calipers but i did not like there sales technique (wanted more for used stuff than i could buy it for retail new one bloke said adapters yes no problems the other who had some wheels to sell said they were weak )

Why would i be joking?

[Bigger brakes]

Hi all I would like to fit bigger brakes to my defender as i am planning a huge engine upgrade. I know i will have to fit bigger wheels. Is there a off the shelf kit or will i have to find the parts separately?

Cheers Rob
