Yes mine is the PRC8463 https://www.brit-car.co.uk/product.php/89988/5497/fuel_tank_sender_unit_110_defender_up_to_vin_ja915357 it has the 3 elect terminals. for gauge, earth, low fuel level. the return sits top centre of tank, the filler breather is above the main fuel fill connection, have a look at the parts diagram & you'll see the return pipe on top.

What are the hub bearings like, maybe a strip/clean/inspect/replace or regrease/refit is needed.

1st pic is the sender unit, different from my '89 110, 2nd is a unused breather connection.

Wow they have gone up in price a lot.

I got a new dash/main harness from Autosparks, it has the correct moulded rubber connectors, it was easy to fit & virtually plug & play. if you want tomake your own they can supply the correctly rated & colour coded wiring but you will have to use different connectors as the moulded rubber type are not supplied seperatly, I think that would almost work out as costly as a ready made loom.

It had a bad case of tinworm, the front inner frame where the bonnet spring section is,was just about hanging on but wouldn't shut & lock properly & it had 2 dents in the raised areas on the outer skin, so it got replaced by a great condition Td5 bonnet which I had painted in the correct colour & fitted it.

Safety hook & associated parts items 13,14,15 & 16

Items 7,8,9,10,11 & 12 fit on slam panel so the safety hook has something to catch on if bonnet pops open

Took these, 1st on my old bonnet showing the 3 rivnuts & the others from my current Td5 bonnet

There isn't much clear material to increase the thread diameter, it quite close to the rear edge as it is.

There were another set of adaptor RTC4480 with small bolts instead of grub screws, no longer available, superseded by the STC987 version with grub screws.

HRC numbers are NOT part numbers, just a casting number, just get the hub that matches to the axle serial number

Replace the splined adaptors, STC987 grub screw type. mine were slack, I replaced both splined adaptors & made sure they grub screws were tight on the spindle flat face, no more slack.

A cut down & slimed down jaw 24mm open end spanner works for me.

Crikey that's a mega thread update, loving the blue on the cab.
