Thanks, but are they updated part numbers or just ones you think might be the ones? (Not that I'm doubting you, I just don't understand your answer...)

Just pulled the caps on my new replacement engine to check bearing shells and noted down the part numbers for ordering replacement, but they don't seem to come up when I search google. ERC 8841 on the big ends and ERR 6935 on the mains. Forgot to get the thrusts number. Can anyone point me in...

So, dragging this thread back up again. I'm wanting to order new mounts and was looking for prices on the Paddocks site, but now I'm confused as to which ones I need because they list a couple of different types with a poor to **** description. Can someone post up links for 300tdi Defender...

Thankfully the x member has been replaced at some point and all the bolts look new

Got ya

Thanks. But if I remove the spiggot will that not upset the end float of the pinion?

What a disaster! Got it to the point where its ready to lift out and decided to call it a night and tidy up ready to pull it tomorrow night. Theres no room in the yard, so had to move it round to the front carpark using the forklift. Sounds simple but what a nightmare, ground is wet, forklift...

I'll look later for more info, but pusshed for time at tho mo trying to get it stripped. Will the props work on a 90 or are they the wrong length

Just stripping an N reg Discovery for the engine and axles for my N reg Defender but the rear axle on the disco is different. Will it fit and is it worth it? Heres the Disco one, the Defender has a uj at the diff end of the drive shaft

How long do you reconMarmaduke?

Sounds like the challenge has been set!

Out of interest, how long does it usualy take to pull the engine from a disco? I have 2 electric overhead gantry cranes and all the tool/cutting equipment I could wish for. I'm on a bit of a time crunch as I'm doing it after hours at work. To speed things up I was thinking of cutting the slam...

Its got electric leather interior, think thats all hes interested in tbh

Its original, but having the axles too as mine look like they've had a hard life

Haha, if only we got snow anymore I've picked one up for £450 i'm taking what I want off it then a guy down the road is having it for 50 quid as I don't have anywhere to break it and store parts unfortunately

Yeah. While I've got the engine out I'm going to change seals too, what are advisable to do on engine, gearbox and t box?

Are they rad mounts? I meant it are the rad and intercooler themselves lol

Really? The ones I've seen are 40 each! That sounds more betterer! Are the rads and intercoolers the same?

Going to be swapping my tired defender 300 and tbox with stuff from a disco of a similar year. My budget only really stretches as far as new fluids, filters, timing belt and a couple of seals, so I'm hoping to use the engine and gearbox mouunts from the disco for now as I know mine are old. Are...

Thinking new replacement engine is a more cost effective solution, its on 206k miles - stuff is starting to wear out
