    TD5 heater box seal

    Right I've been searching for over an hour to try and find an answer to this but not had any joy. Does anybody have the correct part number for the heater box to bulkhead seal for a heater from a td5. I bought STC952 and it in no way, shape or form fits. Any help from anyone would stop me...

    Yea that's like mine. I had to polish the top and paint the grooves to get it to look like that though.

    The kit cost £350 off eBay. Bit pricey but it is for pretty much every hose on the engine. The seller does sell the hoses separately if you only want certain ones and also in several colours. EBay link below...

    Got the steering column, and clutch pedal assembly refurbished and fitted and also got the brake pedal assembly on. Got the handbrake drum all painted up and fitted with some new shoes. Got this little lot through the post too and made a start at plumbing up the engine.

    A very expensive box turned up this week which put a big smile on my face. My fully reconditioned turbo back from turbo techniques. It came with a graph too showing the before and after. Also got this from Gwyn Lewis to fit the double battery setup I'm going to run and all the kit so I...

    I was a bit like that at first. If you can get hold of a wiring diagram which shows wire colours it makes it alot easier. Just a case of being methodical doing a bit at a time and double checking things with a multimeter. Saying that I've yet to hook up a battery yet to properly test it. May go...

    Defender 200tdi bits

    The box looks original to the vehicle it came from which had 156000 on the clock. I did a clutch change last year and while the box was out I took the input gear out and the sump plate off to inspect. The input gear is the cross drilled kind and has no spline wear. The rest of the gears look...

    Defender 200tdi bits

    Gearbox has no spline wear and gets into all gears with no problems. It doesn't have the selector bit on the top as I'm having to use that on my new box. Only up for sale as I'm using a stuby r380 now.

    EDIT: GEARBOX SOLD REAR DOOR SOLD Need to free up some funds to progress my build so trying to flog some of this: Rolling chassis with tub and bulkhead. This is the old chassis and obviously doesn't include a v5 or title. The axles are in good shape with the rear one having drums not disks...

    Ha maybe! I get up earlier than her so I'll have first dibs :D Great tip about the wiper wheel boxes. Hadn't even thought of that! That's why I love posting on this forum. Loads of great friendly advise.

    Leaking swivel seal on 200tdi

    Yep that's them, m6X12mm. I bought some stainless m6x12mm flanged headed bolts off eBay though to try and keep the heads from going rusty and rounding off in the future.

    Swivel Ball rebuild

    Used the Vids when I rebuilt my axles. Explains the process perfectly. Takes the guess work out of what bits you are going to need. Always my trick to order one less bit that I actually need.:rolleyes:

    Swivel Ball rebuild

    There is also a channel on YouTube called land Rover toolbox videos. He's got 4 or 5 videos on rebuilding the swivel housings. They are awesome as they tell you all the bolt torque settings and how to set up the pre-load on the bearings properly. Be worth changing the wheel bearings at the same...
