pugwash Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 isn't the axle drain plug supposed to be common to all series/defenders- i'm sure i read that in one of the comics (not that that means it's true of course !) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest WALFY Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Just looked in the comics and " the retainer was introduced from late spring 1949, when it was found that the earlier staples ( Pt no 300924, subsequently RRC 3966) and hood design didn't hold the hood tight and flat. So to be picky it hasn't been in fitment since day 1. Will Address on way but if it's a subscription to L*E. No thanks. But would trade that for a cake sample :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 The swivel housing drain/fill plug (i forget which) has had the same part number throughout series/defender production despite being changed from imperial to metric size, though the thread remains the same, does that count? Out of curiousity, when did they start using the current prop-shaft bolts, as every series or defender I've worked has had the same ones Lewis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WALFY Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 Lewis Don't steal my victory from underneath me. It's not often I'm right and to get there before Ralph is fairly good I'd say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
