simonpelly Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Hi Folks, Trying to understand part 22 in the following diagram shamelessly copied from LRworkshop. Defender 300 Tdi 1997 It's described as a bush. Any thoughts? Do not recall coming across this when pulling apart our cylinder head. Thanks, Simon...

reb78 Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Its just a spacer isnt it? presumably so the lifting eye sits flat across bits of the head that are not flat?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my first thought also. However, the lifting eye goes across the back on our cylinder head flat. Perhaps a spacer for slightly different types of cylinder head?

David Sparkes Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 (edited) The part number appears to be 390939 and can be described as 'METAL BUSH - MULTI USE - DEFENDER - DISCOVERY 1 - RANGE ROVER CLASSIC (PACK OF 5)'. To support the 'multi-use' element, Craddocks describe it as 'Roller for Seat Slide Range Rover and Discovery and 90/110'. I have just recalled that if you search LRW by part number it shows an alternative use, as a spacer underneath the nut of a 'nut and bolt' holding a wiring P clip in place; presumably so that a socket can be mounted on the nut without fouling the P clip. The point here is that there is a P clip included on the original drawing of the lifting eye. Regards. Edited June 15, 2021 by David Sparkes To add details of the P clip use.

western Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Its just a spacer to allow the rear lifting bracket to sit square on the rear of cylinder head. 21 is a engine loom bracket & a P clip the bolt19 screws in rear of head & another 19 bolt secures 21 , 18 & 22.
