Hi guys, been cleaning up the flywheel today and noticed I have 2 broken teeth, opposite sides of flywheel.

I was thinking of building up weld on the two offending teeth and filing back.

Or probably to change the ring gear depending how easily done that is.
Looks like it comes off clutch disc side of flywheel and bottoms out/homes engine side.

Are they definitely removable? Or are some flywheels all one piece?

Cheers folks
 
Easy job. Buy new ring gear from turners. Get a mapp torch, and warm the old, it will come off, warm the new and it will go on. All covered in the repair operations manual.
 
Pics...as I've got a flywheel from an S2 and ordered a ring gear with other bits before I stripped engine...flywheel is a solid bit with ring gear part of it...to costly to send back from Portugal also cant use engine number to order parts as the one stamped is not an LR and is in the wrong place...
 
thats a job waiting on my series 3 , not sure if same but to remove drill in between teeth and use a chisel to split ,and shrink on, wasn’t too expensive but better than welding
 
Not all ring gears were a seperate part, especially on early diesels.

We do a few on the trucks, 20 seconds to remove, warm up new ring gear and drop onto flywheel slowly spin until it starts to bind, then walk away
