Hello guys!

My 110 1996 Defender converted to 6x4 by carmichael has been sitting idle for something like 5 years before I got it, the Land Rover specialist I took Wheely (yes that's his name) for a first check-up suggested me to change a bunch of things - I have been trying to get them on paddockspares.com but can't find them all - maybe the names given are not the standard ones...

Could you help out with part numbers/links to a webiste to buy them?

• Upper arm bushing x 4

• Axle ball joint x 2

• Lower arm bushings x4

• Mountain sit x 4

• Drop arm repair kit

• Timing belt 200tdi

• Speedometer cable for 300tdi defender

• Accelerator cable for diesel

• Air filter for petrol 3.5 v8

• Sedimentor for diesel defender + hose for diesel in and out

• Clutch repair kit for defender diesel tdi300

• Swivel/Hub bearings/seals overhaul front axle
• Hub Bearings/seals rear axles

Thanks a lot!

Simone

Hi Simone,

You might find looking for parts on this website may help. Or lrdirect.com also have a search function using drawings. At least give you an idea of what part numbers you are searching for.

Welcome to the forum, also downloading this might help as it also has exploded diagrams

Paddocks and Craddocks will also ship internationally

Great thanks Neilly,

I have started looking into this, for the pieces that I know the location of, not all of them

At times that are a couple of alternatives like for the Mounting-lower link flexible rubber - NTC9027 (From (V) JA 910737) or STC618 (To (V) JA 910736) - how do I know which one is the right one?

Hi Simone,

The JA XXXXXX number is the VIN number . So if you look at ours hopefully it should allow you to verify what you need, Taking inot account it is a modified vehicle things may not always be according to the VIN number.

Plus you quite often find that if you do a search for the first part number it might be superceded by the second or even a third part number.

I often use it to look for the various part numbers on a part, then search on lrdirects website , as they normally tell you if it is superceded.

Cheers

Ah great to know!! so my serial number in the VIN is 975201 so I have to look for the parts number that are From (V) JA 910737 correct?

Why are there parts from a 200Tdi, 300Tdi and a 3.5V8?

Ah good question!

The car had originally a petrol 3.5 V8 that seized and was changed to a 200TDi (Discovery both engine and gearbox)... Now the mechanic told me that for some things such as the speedometer or the clutch repair kit I should take the 300tdi one because made for the Defender, and the airfilter still for the 3.5 v8 because that is what is still fitting....

In Africa they can get very creative..!

Unfortunately it is quite common in UK too!

I would have thought if it has a 200Tdi engine and box in it, you'll want a 200Tdi clutch. They may be the same, I don't know.

Does that mean that the 300Tdi clutch will fit the 200Tdi, James?

Thought that must be the case.

Some info on here!

Thanks a lot all, I will keep you updated on how all progresses!

I'd like to raise it of a couple of inches - what would be the parts i would need to change beyond springs and shocks?

Do you have anymore pictures of the vehicle and you say you want to raise it up, yet it looks quite high does it have a water tank?

Nothing else needed afaik but any higher usually requires cranked radius/ trailing arms. Not sure on your your prop shafts.

Here you go some further pics of Wheely today when I was moving some furniture home

For context I want to restore Wheely to be able to take it overland from Ghana to Cape town and back to Nairobi and then to the RoW, so what I do now needs to be work that will enable me to be ready for this big adventure

@jamesmartin thanks very much for pointing out the various parts numbers - i have a few questions after having done some further research today:

*Upper arm bushing x 4 do you mean A fram bushes – I guess so?

Axle ball joint x 2 chrome ball ?*

Q1: This is how the L/R Specialist (??) mechanic here called the parts needed – I guess these are the A Frame parts (bushes + ball joint)? These would be x2 and x4 because of the middle and rear axle I guess. For these do you have any recommendation on which one to buy? Is there any meaningful upgrade that is worth doing ? I did some research and found on Paddock this one (heavyduty TRE76RS) and this one that is interesting as has a greater articulation (DA1129ULTRA) – what are your thoughts?

*Lower arm bushings x4 ?*

Q2: If upper arm bushing is the A frame what could lower arm be ? May be lower arm was an old way of referring to it

*Mountain sit x 4 ?*

Q3:May be they meant mounting-rubbers? What are these for and would you need 4 of them?

*Drop arm repair kit stc3295 or rbg000010 *

Q4:The one I found is for PAS ? I guess that is power assisted steering right? is there any meaningful upgrade to be done whilst I am at it ? There is the option of the defender drop arm is swapped with the one of the discovery (http://www.gwynlewis4x4.co.uk/produ...eering-drop-arm-ball-joint-conversion-hd-kit/) – what are the benefits making it worth doing besides easier replacement ? else I have seen where they put a grease nipple in the drop arm (http://www.landroverblogger.com/land-rover-steering-drop-arm-ball-joint) so that it’s easier to grease and should last longer… what are your thoughts?


*Timing belt 200tdi etc8550*

Q5:The mechanic was not able to inspect the timing belt but just said that to be on the safe side is best to change this because we don’t know the km and maintenance of the 200tdi engine that got fit in by the previous owner – would you also recommend to change it which would mean having the mechanic to play around with the engine a bit?

Speedometer cable for 300tdi defender prc6022 if rhd or prc6021 if lhd

Q6:Do you need also one for the odometer or is the same one?

Accelerator cable for diesel ntc9360 if rhd ntc9359 if lhd

Q7:So there is no difference if the car is petrol or diesel in this piece?

Air filter for petrol 3.5 v8 rtc3479

Q8:If I have a 200TDI and the cleaner element is of a 3.5 V8 it’s fine? If I want to fit a snorkel in the future would I need to change the air filter type or everything would stay as is and so it makes sense to buy now a new air filter? Wheely has its air intake on top of the wings (both sides). Would this meat cutting a hole in the wing to fit a snorkel or on the side?

Sedimentor for diesel defender + hose for diesel in and out

Q9:I have a petrol one that has been disconnected so I am looking at connecting it as humidity here is high and diesel not always clean - can i connect the existing one that was for petrol or should change it? If I have to change it, shall I go for the standard one (NRC9708) or are there any upgrades available for poor fuel conditions of developing countries?

Clutch repair kit for defender diesel tdi300 stc8358

Q10:What does this kit do as it seems quite a lot of places to change?

Swivel/Hub bearings/seals overhaul front axle

Q11:These are 2x 606666 Roller Bearing, 1x 571752 Drive Flange Gasket, 1x FTC3401 Swivel Seal, 1x 571755 Swivel Seal Retainer, 1x FRC2883 Shim, 1x FRC2884 Shim, 1x FRC2885 Shim, 1x FRC2886 Shim, 1x FTC3646 Gasket, 1x FRC4206 Gasket, 1x FTC3648 Gasket, 1x FTC3276 Seal, 1x STC3435 Swivel Grease
I would rather buy the kit so it has everything but since the bearings are britpart is best to buy it separate as I hear britpart is not good on moving parts?

Hub Bearings/seals rear axles rtc3429 and ftc4785 plus ftc3179 tab washer

Q12:The hub bearing (rtc3429) comes only with 1 bearing and 1 racing right? So I need to buy 2 per wheel for all the 6 wheels (I guess it makes no difference if it’s front/middle/rear axle)? Are these the only 3 components (rtc3429+ ftc4785 + ftc3179) you recommend to change if I don’t go with the kit?

Q13: Last question is whether when I will change the rims I will need to change the hub/swivel/cv and so best to wait and change all at once? I would like to fit something like this https://images.google.com.gh/imgres...MEVDcNm5evM:&vet=1&w=960&h=666&source=sh/x/im

Thanks so very much!
