western Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 their called lok nuts the LR number is CZA4705L normally come in packs of 10, I've relaced mine & the rubber seal on the front floor plates & gearbox tunnel recently, when you refit the flooor/tunnel make sure the screws go down the middle of the lok nuts squarely or the screw will try to come out of the side. some here http://www.lrseries.com/shop/product/listi...okut&page=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisM_110 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 To save future pain and misery don't forget to replace the screws with some No. 14 x 3/4 stainless ones. Makes a world of difference later on. Edit: The washers are M6 [Form X3, also called half-penny. Penny washers are a bot too big] if you want stainless washers as well.

Guest diesel_jim Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Fitting all the floor and bits into my project110, i've so far, used two tubes of panel sealer... that horrible black sticky stuff. Still, it shouldn't leak for a day or 3..... i just hope i don't have to remove the floor anytime quick.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to use a load of silicone but i pull the floor up so often that im going try and do it with rubber seals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 the seal comes in 1 metre packs. so make sure you have enough before you start ripping the floor up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisM_110 Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 the seal comes in 1 metre packs. so make sure you have enough before you start ripping the floor up. Or just use a cheap 5m roll of closed cell draught excluder. I got mine from Wickes or Screwfix. Bargain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
