200tdi conversion lhd ??

storm99 · Sep 22, 2010

Ok..anyone done or know anyone whos put a 200tdi disco motor into a left hooker?

I'm thinking its going to be a bit difficult to fit the turbo and conversion pipe on due to the steering linkage...

Or it could just be a case of me thinking too much....

Any ideas?

I'm reading up on this to some degree Storm, as with the Defender 200TDi it is possible to use a Disco turbo as used on LHD Landy's, this little link may give you an idea if you can grab hold of a Def manifold etc.

Discovery 200tdi turbo to fit defender - LR4x4 - The Land Rover Forum

Yes that would be fine if I got a RHD as you, but I don't. The steering link is in its way and it dosn't fit - been there done that!

Bought a new manifold ERR678 for 200tdi defender and I still want to mount the almost new discovery turbo on top of it, and now I sorted it out my self.

Take off the wastegate actuator and the small clip.
Loosen the four bolts (use lots of wd40) holding the hot side turbine housing.
Tap it gently with a hammer until it's loose.
Turn it untill the center spool housing is in the right position.
Tighten the four bolts again.
Remove the large clip on the turbine inlet housing.
Pull the compressor housing off not damaging the O-ring.
Turn it in the right position and put it all together again.
Tap two new holes for the accurator arm.

Read the whole thing, the guy seems to have cracked it and with Disco turbo's being alot easier to get hold of and mating it upto a Defender200TDi manifold as the Disco manifold will foul the steering box.
