lol god knows why i put this in the discovery section. belt is fine. good idea about uj remember them being having that nice brown rust colour at the uj,s. supprising it went straight through its mot like that with no advisory though.
today after not driving my 90 for a while ive noticed that the steering is acting weird. its feels lumpy when u try to turn the wheel stiff to move sometimes then easy. also it doesnt want to spin back when u let go. its got enough oil for the pump, dosnt make any noises, its a 6 bolt box and a 300tdi pump if that helps
thanks Andy
oil coolers are normally only rated at about 30bar working pressure and a return line can easilly see more then that unless the system is design correctly.
we have a thermobile at work and its great it only smokes a bit to start before it warms up properly we burn it on all our waste oil. and we can use up to 40l a day in it on max power. its a god send when we use it. the parts are cheap as well for them
another vote for the thermadyne 51 at work yes its 3 phase but there very gd and easy to use. but make sure u shop around beacuse we managed to save our selves about £200 on our one by doing that
all i did was bolt it straight to the lt77 none of the bolts line up on the bottom of the engine but the chevy v8 only bolt in around half of the bellhousing so isnt a majour problem
i think u should be able to as long as u change the diff over from 10spline 20 the 21 spline diff. u may need to change for of the studs that hold the diff on from short ones to long ones. hope this helps
another way that the oil can be drain is to fit a hydraulic pipe instead of the sump plug and put a blanking plug on the end. if u make a bracket to hold it out of the way normally u shouldnt find any probs with it flopping about. or if uve got some time make a bracket with a blanking plug fixed to it and screm it on so it holds it well. this method works perfectly well on forestry machines so carnt see any reason it wont work on a land rover.
