drewbar Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 So basically I had a bit of a cock up, I drilled out the rivets on the rear door lock, opened up the lock and bits went every where, my reason for doing this was to change the lock barrel which i have since learnt was completely unnecessary, so I've replaced the lock barrel no problems but I need to rebuild the lock now, I've searched about all I can and I can't find any info on how the springs should be set and I just can't work it out, the problem springs are two that go around the handle shaft, I can't work out where they should locate, I will get some pictures this afternoon to help explain myself!! In the mean time if anyone has any pictures of the insides of a rear door lock or an exploded diagram that would be a great help I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mmgemini Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 If you read my post on this I'll add more. I took my door lock to a local locksmith, the one I'd opened up. He repaired it for me at the cost of a fiver. After two years it still works fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewbar Posted February 18, 2014 Author Share Posted February 18, 2014 Thanks for the help guys, I was a bit confused at first as my lock was totally different to ones in the pictures, turns out someone has fitted an early defender/series lock at some point. WIth the help of this article: http://forums.lr4x4.com/index.php?showtopic=73649 Ive rebuild it all and its working great now! Cheers!
