They look perfect, I'll give them a bell, if they wont sell me the internals its not a bad price for the whole box. Thank you very much Huddy

Thank you, shes a heffa

Bump Thank you for any interest that may follow

Pinched flywheel incase flywheel on donor engine is toast, other wise complete, starter, alternator and viscous fan. Care taken to seal off inlet manifold, rocker cover breather pipe, fuel pipes, vacuum pump and flywheel bolts screwed back in

Cheers pal, Had a look in me rear diff this evening

My 90 with axles just 'thrown' under so we can roll it about

I am the brother of 'Pillar', We have a chain hoist we use for lifting engines etc, with a bit of effort I reckon we could lift it up and swing it in the back safely, if this sounds good then I suppose first come first served - dark skies gets first dibs, pm if interested or not

Knew I missed something, I have a D1 300tdi pas box in unkown condition, I wondered if the internals would fit in my box, before I pull it apart and find out the hard way

As title says, I have got my steering box removed and apart as bottom dust seal was in pieces, (had done its job, box was full of oil and not leaking), and the worm shaft has worn through the case hardening in the straight ahead position, and the 'wheel' that it turns against is pretty worn all...

What turbo was it? Genuine? cheap ebay replacement? second hand? reconditioned?

If the pumps are plumbed into a t piece, with only one pumping it will pump it back through the other pump and back into the bottle, either make the other pump work (wire it up so they come on together) or do away with the t piece so the working pump just does the front screen

If you mean the oil pressure light then you don't want to be even starting it until you've found out why and fixed it

Unless the whole axle is badly corroded don't go replacing it, you know the condition of your one and has had no problems for the time tou been driving it - in theory. Drain the oil, cut off the old pan and weld on a replacement, take the diff out and block axle tubes to stop grinding crap...

If the lip is superfcial cut a portion out, or bend it down for the short section you need

Fire away mate....

As said make sure port you're doing has valve shut, and hack it all out with screwdriver/rag/brake cleaner/petrol/diesel and then get an airline/hoover down to the valve end and give it a good blow out, its only manky exhaust gunge, just make sure there's no bits of wire from wire brushes down...

You don't want to be bead/sand blasting stressed steel items like wheels, as you remove the surface tension in the material and will be more likely to fatigue and crack.

Who's going and what are you hoping to buy that you sort of need now, but hopefully will be cheaper at the show, then you don't find one or the're all too expensive, come home without it, then panic more and have to order it online anyway? Been there done that.
