Gren_T Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Hi all Does anyone have a source for the flexplate to crank shims, I am fitting a new engine and find I have a 5mm gap between the flexplate and torque converter and I've used the 2 shims that came with the old engine, the w/s manual suggests a gap between 1-3mm. I've tried land rover and the parts guy at the dealership tells me they are NLA, I also asked Ashcroft's while pricing up a replacement R380 and was told "they cannot help". anyone else have a source for any of the following : FRC6293 ,1.30MM FRC6299,1.90MM FRC6291,1.1MM FRC6297,1.70MM FRC6295,1.50MM Cheers..

Gren_T Posted February 27, 2022 Author Share Posted February 27, 2022 Hi western thanks for the prompt reply. Bearmach list the part with a -G meaning genuine I tried them and they said none in stock and have to come from LR part, hence me going straight to Stratstone who said the part numbers were NLA. Incidentally they did sell me 2 flex plate shims but these although looking similar are way too small and do not fit, and as they were under £30 there are no returns. I'll try Trellick in the morning. cheers.👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
