    Needs must. Nothing is beyond salvage, given infinite resources. I could recover those. But I'd go to Sodbury and see what I could get that's better first.

    Did you get the dimensions? Are you having to rivet on the tie down tabs? Someone with a 109 must have the dimensions. Is this what you mean?

    I've a TDI 200 in my series, with uprated head and IP. I tow with it, and have been known the push it hard. No problems with the box, but I change the oil annually. And I change gear slowly. Ten years since I fitted the turbo.

    The doors are 34" so the bulkhead to tub measure should be 34.5"to allow for shut gap.

    Exactly. Tub. Seat box and sills, then bulkhead. Best do doors windscreen and roof before finalising the bulkhead.

    15w50 is fine for these engines, use a mineral oil rather than synthetic. Personally i wouldn't think a thicker oil would make much difference, but.. if it does.. it's putting off the inevitable and you've already got it in bits. Do you want to...

    Dimension request! I'm going to fit a 3/4 hood to my 109 truck cab. I need to fit the front rope hooks to do that. Does anything have the distance between the fold of the door frame and the rivets? Much appreciated!

    Some more recent crossmembers have the tab fitted the defender way, avoiding the need for a spacer.

    Camshaft related, so. Possibilities are: Oil pump Skew gear Dizzy Fuel pump Rollers Followers Push rods I'd start with the rollers, can be seen from the engine side by taking the side plates off.
