chrisoleary Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Finaly got time to pick up my 110 and had a clearout in my garage. Got a couple of mates to lift off the roof so it would fit into the garage and the fun can begin. Replacement bulkhead, seat box and all 3 doors required - and included in the sale .

Drizz Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Can you get new bulkheads? (i know you already have a replacement but thought id still ask) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisoleary Posted July 31, 2009 Author Share Posted July 31, 2009 Can you get new bulkheads? (i know you already have a replacement but thought id still ask) Not sure if you can still get new ones of the older models but td5 ones can be adjusted to fit most defenders. Anyone know where i can get the channels that guide the glass inside the doors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisoleary Posted August 4, 2009 Author Share Posted August 4, 2009 Jeezus, it's amazing how many parts I'm gonna need . I got a lot of parts with it but need loads more. I am changing the bulkhead, seatbox, doors and rear body cappings - all of which came with it but all were new and bare so everything is to be swapped over. All doors are off and we (my son and I) are pottering with them while waiting for parts/tools etc. My jack packed in the other day so waiting to get a new one and also need axle stands so we can remove the front wheels to access the wing nuts. We are mid way through removing the seat box and I am wondering if it should wait until the bulkhead is in place - Any ideas? Does it matter which is in first?

chrisoleary Posted August 4, 2009 Author Share Posted August 4, 2009 Forgot to ask can I fit td5 windscreen wiper mech's (wheelbox?) to save altering the td5 bulkhead holes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Yes, you might have to use the Td5 wiper arms too, as I'm not 100% sure the splined part is the same size as older vehicles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine have adapters on already so not sure if that brings them to the same size as td5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThreePointFive Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Have bought long lengths of window channel for about 3 quid in the past at landrover shows and cut it to size I did this too, as I couldn't find anyone who supplied the window channels, LR themselves didn't!! I 'glued' them in place with instant gasket as a complete bodge, thinking it would last the week, and a few months on my windows still wind down and back up without trying to exit through the door card like they did before.

chrisoleary Posted August 7, 2009 Author Share Posted August 7, 2009 How do you get to the top bolt holding the f/n/s wing to the bulkhead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 remove the plastic flexi arch & you can get to the 5 wing to bulkhead bolts with a long extension bar & socket Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marks 110 Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 remove the plastic flexi arch & you can get to the 5 wing to bulkhead bolts with a long extension bar & socket Remember doing mine with one of those offline adaptors on a 3/8 socket which allows a slight angle to be put on the extension bar. IIRC the top bolts can be done from the engine bay sticking your handsdown by the corner of the wing and the bottom bolts can be done from underneath.

chrisoleary Posted August 25, 2009 Author Share Posted August 25, 2009 I remember someone saying disconnect the brakes and clutch pipework - do you need to split the brake master cylinder from the servo? Do you disconnect the clutch pipework from the master cylinder and leave in situ'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angusb Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 I split the brake master cylinder from the servo and then I could get the brake master cylinder and pedal out of the bulkhead and tie the servo out of the way. Didn't need to bleed the brakes then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisoleary Posted September 6, 2009 Author Share Posted September 6, 2009 Still plodding along when i get time. Just a couple of thing in the way of removing the bulkhead - I can't find any joints in the wiring going into either wing and a bit stuck on removing the stearing column. How do you get the bolts out of the steering lock and do i need to remove all of the colapsable joint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you get the bolts out of the steering lock and do i need to remove all of the colapsable joint? There aren't any joints in the wiring going into the wing, you either need to remove the wings, find a small set of hands to get the wires out of the lamp clusters, or cut the wires and then rejoin them after you fit the new bulkhead. I went for cutting the wires by the servo and the heater and then rejoining them after with bullet connectors. Saves a lot of time and you can leave the wings on so its easier to realign the new bulkhead. I got the bolts out of the steering lock with a centre punch. Hammered it into the top of the bolt off-centre and then used the depression it made to get the punch in at an angle to turn the bolt. I loosened the clamp on the collapsable joint nearest to the column and the next one and that was all I had to do to get the bulkhead off. Good luck and label all the plugs when you remove the loom.

chrisoleary Posted September 13, 2009 Author Share Posted September 13, 2009 Tried for hours today to split the steering column with no success again. Everything else is disconnected and the bulkhead ready to be removed but the steering column is just holding me back, any advice??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
