Dappe Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 After gearbox replacement I'm going to reassemble the transmission brake, but I dont remember where the third spring should be placed. There is two big springs for the brake shoes and thats ok. Can anybody tell me where it's going to be placed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandyManLuke Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 third spring? Mine's only got two...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gromit Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 third spring?Mine's only got two...... Me too. Don't recall a 3rd spring anywhere round the assembly (BTW, looks like a nice truck Dappe, got any more pictures? ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotian Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 Yup. same here. I have my hand brake off ever few months becuase it gets full of mud and I never came accross a 3rd spring. Maybe its some kind of mod that has been put on more recent vehicles? What ever, it should work perfectly with just the 2 on the shoes. Talking of hand brakes.. anyone know how to stop it getting full of mud and the pistion grinding to a halt? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dappe Posted March 5, 2008 Author Share Posted March 5, 2008 This is the spring... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Henson Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 I've only ever come across 2-springs as well (and I've seen a few). Have you physically got three springs or are you referring to the picture? Les. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LandyManLuke Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 My handbrake looks like this (1992 200tdi) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Sparkes Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 The diagram Dappe has copied is taken from a Parts Fiche, although it's labelled as the 90, 110, 127 Catalogue in the main menu, it's a fiche when it opens. I've found it on a Classic CD '84 to 89, in the Transfer Box section covering the 90, 100, 127, Transmission Brake, Direct Entry Cable. Note this is different to the rod operated brake. There are two different part numbers for springs (all labelled 2 in the diagram). Look at the Notes on the right, and the Change Points detailed at the bottom. They may help the rest of you decide what is going on, I suspect it's a case of all three springs are not fitted at once. I hope the pdf blows up to a readable size.

Lars L Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 I have no definite answer, but can it be a spring for the wire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Henson Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 Perhaps it's an incredibly rare 3-spring handbrake prototype - your truck could be worth millions Les. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotian Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 That diagram looks funny anyway. Its got vertical shoes as do rear axle drum brakes. I;ve never seen a transmission brake like that on a Landrover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Smith Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 err... fit an X-brake!! What he said, fitted mine last year and wished I'd done it a long time ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex Member Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 According to the parts catalog, the brake with the vertical shoes is the newer design from transfer box SN 20D290864E,22D290864 My drawing only shows two springs. Page 378 of the 110 parts catalog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lars L Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 And I took a look in my Disco parts book. Yes, it's there, but no clue of how it's supposed to sit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 From Defender RAVE workshop manual info, only shows 2 shoe return springs & the retention springs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
