im sure whatever it is it can be sorted

Nooo dont sell it from what you say it seems like a good one if it is the cam belt its a easy fix.... a few hours and maybe some pushrods

From what you explained on the phone, that chuffing sound seems like a valve not closing at the right time so poss cam belt slippage..... Geoff just had a look at workshop manual that crank pulley bolt is torque to yield so will need a new one when we change the pulley!

sure we can quickly knock something up on the day, quite often making locking tools have pillar drill, welder gillotine small pressbrake etc should be quite easy

no problem always happy to muck in, need a day off anyway

One atb and one locker, but not normal ones and surprised they came in ashcroft boxes because there made by quaife, just waiting for the shafts and cv's then will spend some time pinning the diffs and setting them up, then time for a little play and see how they do cant wait!!!!

there two parcels waiting for me when i got home, happy boy!

cool no problem, if chris has his defender in the workshop still, its running fine so can drive it out and put it back after, next week is cool with me bit hectic this week. ill txt ya

I think you mean caster corrected radius arms.... ill pop round and see what ya got and give ya a bit of advice.

so when we going out shooting in it! lol

Looks pukka mate! bit weird it only doing 65 tho????

If it was me i would probably fit a good second hand one because it would most likely be a genuine part, and they are not really that common to go. You will also need ERR5992 which is your front seal as it may leak with a different pulley and not worth the risk for how easy it is to change. If...

Didnt realise they kept the casing until i read the blurb again! not really in the same league as spidertrax housings like they say then!

My manual says genuine part number is LHG100580

awww thats not cheap sorry to hear that geoff....have you seen this? LANDROVER TD5 CRANKSHAFT PULLY VIBRATION DAMPER PULLY DEFENDER TD5 DISCOVERY TD5 | eBay

I keep looking at those for the simplicity of not having to custom make much to get them to fit , but as you say a bit pricey

Good night had by all and no breakages! cheers for leading and sorting the lanes Jon!

Thats a lot of chassis!!! must have been nearly to the spring mounts

how about this? Land Rover Discovery 200tdi off roader very high spec. | eBay
