Hello all, is that really possible that my 2.25 1975 petrol never had a head gasket? photos below, I can't see any gasket. and that's how the head came off.

Thx

sorry I think I've not made myself clear. It's the bolts that hold the bellhousing intermediary plate to the engine.

Morning, one of the bolts has sheared off so need a replacement. I can't seem to find it in the parts list what is the bolt thread size and length and a part number would be good. I also need to get some longs ones to mount it to my engine stand s will need at least thread size please. Thanks...

That looks promising where is that available?

can you mount the servo to an old s3 brake pedal just welding on a plate then?

Hi all, I have a 75 series with no brake servo and was looking to upgrade it to a servo base solution. Does anyone have any links to suppliers that may have second hand/reconditioned ones for sale? Thanks Chris

Hello all, I am trying to rebuild my steering box, and have an issue that the new bearing seem to sit too proud and so the number of bottom shims is not enough. I can't see what it wrong unless I have too many ball bearing in the top or bottom race. I'm probably being stupid so could someone...

Hello all, https://bearmach.com/product/bulkhead-repair-chbkbkrp/door-pillar-bulkhead-lh-lower-repair-bracket-to-outrigger-suitable-for-all-defender-vehicles-ba-2012b does this piece need welding in or does it slot in from below? TIA chris

cheers

ok will do. As machining in a bush is a bit of a PITA. I'll let you all know how the rebuild goes. Cheers for the all the help.

Thx for the message. Yeah I got a refurb kit, it was more a question of the slop where the bar rubs against the housing and wears over time. Do you drill it out and put a bush in?

also what are peoples opinion, on whether I should just buy a new one from Bearmach for £75. https://bearmach.com/product/carburettor-enfefeca/carburettor-36iv-carburettor-zenith-replacement-only-suitable-for-series-2a-series-3-vehicles-br-2237 Is the quality good?

Hi, how are people fixing slop in the butterfly, Mine has a little not sure it bad enough to get a buse installed. I imagine it will let in air. video here https://froggroup-my.sharepoint.com/:v:/g/personal/chris_frog_co_uk/ERhz44yVp6RJt7rDcWhBbo4B8FBV_r_Rrni-bseNCoj0pg?e=6ucp19

Good idea. Cheers

turns out it is a fuel problem. put some fuel down the carb and started then stopped. A lot of silt in the fuel pump bowl. it's a new fuel pump and the tank looked clean. will keep an eye on it and keep cleaning it out. Cheers for all your suggestions.
