yes and no, the hardest part was finding all the parts and the money to pay for it all, also having nothing to go by so it was all guess work, a 300tdi defender parked next to me would have helped a lot. I still have little things to do that would have been avoided if I could see what goes where, for example; I think I will need to put some spacers under the engine mounts to lift the engine up 1/4 inch, and chop down my old radiator bracket to fix it past the intercooler. but on the scale of things they are a very small jobs compared to what else has happened. I really hope I've finally got some reliability in the old girl at last, after all this is the 3rd engine and second gearbox I've fitted to it!!!
