Does anyone have a list of bearing numbers for the LT230 transfer box. I am looking for the bearing manufacturers part numbers not the Land Rover numbers.

There are plenty of videos on you tube. I followed one an MG owner had posted. Stripped mine completely, removed all the muck that had collected around front seals etc and repainted bezels. Managed to recalibrate it so it now looks ok and reads pretty much spot on

they are easy enough to strip/rebuild.

Rover 3.9 had 182 bhp and 230lb/ft. E type 4.2 had 261bhp and 283. I agree that V8 would be easier to fit but the engines as you say are chalk and cheese. If you have the skill set and access to a nice 4.2. GO FOR IT. Years ago I helped install a Jag into a Reliant Scimitar, the result...

Standard V8 just turns fuel into strange rumbling sound and very little power lol

Looks like cam follower/slide has broken up

never seen it but think a 4.2 with triple carbs would be superb. I often thought about a Jeep 4.0 litre straight six, there was a good posting in here somewhere about jeep transplant. i love the 4.0 pushrod lump. Easiest straight six would obviously be BMW

maybe these two could be useful at the price. Freight Rover Sherpa Gearbox Mounting Plate 62H125 (johnrichardssurplus.co.uk) Perkins prima M50 or Volvo MD22 Bell Housing | eBay

Do you already have a prima engine? If you could live with two wheel drive it may be easier to find a Sherpa 200 series engine and box

not sure if any of this is still useful but it is comprehensive Perkins Prima diesel engine conversion for Series land Rovers (nhua.co.uk)

They are fine. If I want to go speeding about in the rain I choose another car

i think 7.50 16 look right. i found a lovely set of as new Michelin XZL on Defender rims which were removed from one of the las 110 utility Defenders. Painted them with limestone paint and i love the look and perfromance

it sounds retarded to me so first make sure you got a good clean fuel supply and if that is ok advance the pump timing a little at a time

changed gear and transfer oil. made easy using my new toy made from an old Eclipse sprayer, a length of hydraulic hose and a tap with a trigger

if money were no object i would ship mine to these guys. Land Rover Series IIA and Series III Pricing - North America Overland Not sure if they will just offer engine/gearbox upgrades to five speed box and fuel injected engine

hopefully easily fixed with new thrust-plate ERC1561 - Thrust Plate Camshaft 2.25 P and D 2.5 P 2.5D 2.5TD 200 TDI (johncraddockltd.co.uk)

I found a second hand CSI one from an MGB on EBay. It has a choice of 16 advance curves pre-programmed. I selected the best one for a standard 2 1/4 after fitting Lucas gold coil and new trick ht leads, it now runs so sweetly and revs much better.

cool.

custom exhaust downpipe with a small vortex silencer will go on my td5 when the one fitted gives up. You could always put several turns of exhaust bandage round the new de-cat pipe where the cat would be;)
