Jimmy Two-Jacks Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 Hello, I have been having problems trying to replace my early 90 door locks and thought somebody on the forum may be able to help. I have managed to get the lock off and take the cylinder out but having been sold two sets of cylinders now from "landrover specialists) that don’t fit I am beginning to wonder if this type of cylinder is available for a 1986 90 three door. See images below for more info. Thanks for any help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See images below for more info. Thanks for any help I'm bewildered too - all the barrels I've changed (on a 2a fitted with s3 anti-burst locks and a 1988 defender all look like your "wrong" examples, and so do all the pictures on LR series. Have you got a photie of the locks themselves? I'm wondering whether they are original or not. The "right" type: Pickie linky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I called the good people at the Land rover Orphanage today and they couldn’t have been more helpful they knew the type of lock fitted and what type of barrel needed and confirmed that this type of locks are quite scarce having been only fitted for three years in the early 90/110 models. I will post some pics of the barrels when they arrive just in case it helps anyone else looking for this type of lock barrel for their early 90/110 There is a slight consolation in having been sold two sets of incompatible lock barrels by others is that the man from the Land rover Orphanage told me one of them would probably fit the back door lock . Oh well you live and learn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
