=jon= Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Morning All, I'm hoping to (finally) get round to swapping the 3.5 in my 110 to the 4.6 I've had in the shed for yonks over the christmas period. I'm busy making a shopping list of stuff I'm going to need (mainly from Fridge's swap thread) so I can get everything ready as sourcing parts may be a bit tougher while everyone is on hols... I've already got MS2 + EDIS fully working with a thor inlet, so that side of things should be reasonably straightforwards, and the new lump has the crank triggers etc. So far my shopping list consists of: Oil filters + break in oil 19mm hose x lots for making the various water hoses up New engine mounts, for while it's out. injector seals for when the fuel rails get swapped over. 16 x Seal - Fuel Injector - ERR7309 - Genuine 1870mm 7-vee serp belt (not using aircon) Some way of bodging the PAS pipes together Anyone know what the threads are so I can source the right compression fittings? I've got a remote oil filter + cooler so hopefully that will swap straight across.. Anything else I'm missing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Did you see the right old kerfuffle I had with my PAS pipes? You need to keep the angled metal pipe that comes out of the pump and get a compression olive fitting onto it, photos on my ambulance thread.

=jon= Posted December 11, 2018 Author Share Posted December 11, 2018 Yup - I've got the screenshots saved - much appreciated! Do you know what thread etc the fittings you got were? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 The new end was 3/8" BSP I think as the pipe is a gnat's pube under 10mm, not sure what the PAS box ends are as mine's a D2 box, but the stock PAs box pipe thread has been well documented on here by others. Oh and from personal experience you WILL need to get the high-pressure line swaged up by an adult at the hydraulics shop, 1500+PSI is not to be sniffed at and will find its way past anything that's not pukka.

smallfry Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 I seem to remember reading somewhere that the THOR pump produces too much pressure for the steering box and causes some sort of problem ? Cant find the info now though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowie69 Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 No, it is fine, works perfectly on my 4 bolt box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 Works fine on the 127 (6-bolt box) and the D2 box in the 109. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil110 Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 As far as I can recall, the thread in the PS pump are "ENOTS" thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
