SiWhite Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 Having booked the week off work to finish the 'to do' list on the Landy before Tony's, I've made a big mistake..... I've forgotten my H****s manual, not a great move when I'm up to my elbows building diffs! Could anyone be kind enough to look up the torque settings for the standard crownwheel-to-diff bolts? Any while you're there, what's the backlash value supposed to be? Ta In Advance..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid_From_Hell Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 Si, IF you have broadband PM me your e-mail address and I'll ping over early tommorow the PDF section for what your doing whicgh is the genuine LR Workshop Manual, I'll warn you know this section on its OWN is 7MB !

jeremy996 Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 Having looked at my H****s manual and my "Workshop manual- owners edition", both bottle taking a diff apart, so are completely useless. Suggestions for a proper manual with real information? Cost? Supplier? - I'm cross, I'd like to choose if it's too hard or expensive.

SiWhite Posted August 22, 2005 Author Share Posted August 22, 2005 Sent Pm - Thanks Nige! I'm going to do a photo-by-photo thing for the tech archive as well - it's really a pretty easy job if you get some tools.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiWhite Posted August 22, 2005 Author Share Posted August 22, 2005 That's an awesome bit of kit, thanks Nige! A quick scan reveals nowt about crownwheel bolt torque. Any ideas, or is it just 'kin tight and Loctite? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landrover598 Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 or is it just 'kin tight and Loctite? That applies to everything on a landy doesn't it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark90 Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 From 90/110 Workshop manual.... Crown wheel to differential case 150-170 Nm* Crown wheel / pinion backlash 0.10-0.17mm or 4-7 thou * Edit that's for rear axle (salisbury??) , front says 55-61Nm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBMUD Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 Yup, use the lower figure! I helped a mate do his recently and the manual failed to mention that the figure given for the rear was for a Salisbury. I worked it out before doing any damage fortunatly!

Fatboy Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Si, I've done a few diffs with varying success and that was following the book. The key bit for me was getting the tightness of the pinion shaft right. If you have too many shims in, its loose (Obvious) but you have to be patient when removing them to ensure you reach the point where the shims are still providing an effective "pack" under torque and the shaft is snug to move... If you remove too many shims, you will achieve the preload on the shaft but there will be a gap behind (which should have a shim in it!). When the diff is then under load on the road, this gap then provides enough room in the setup for the bearings to wear and then the whining begins... Bear in mind that all of the faffing about has to be done without the seal. The pinion nut torque is quite high and therefore make sure you have plenty lubricant on the threads every time or you will gaul them. (Did that...)

will_warne Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Si, if you want to borrow my workshop manual, just give me a shout and pop round Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiWhite Posted August 23, 2005 Author Share Posted August 23, 2005 Cheers bud, All in now, minus the thread which Frogs Island are cutting tomorrow! Should be over some time late morning if that's OK? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
will_warne Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 No prob. I've got the front axle to sort today then I'll be nearly done! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
