Part number for swivel housing

payydg · Mar 21, 2015

Does anyone have a part number for the metal swivel housing - I don't know what it's called - not the ball but the big metal thing that the pins fit into and the oil seal fits into?

This is for a 1991 200tdi defender 90.

Changing the swivel ball and oil seal has turned into a bit of a nightmare

. One of the pin bolts has snapped off and I'm not convinced I can drill it out without ruining the thread.

was it the lower pin bolt , as lower pin doesnt need removing for any job apart from changing the actual lower pin if yours is pre ja909205 swivel housing for lh frc4839 and rh side frc4838

Thanks James, Yeh it is pre JA.

It was the lower pin. I just followed busters guide on here, which said remove both pins. The whole thing came off with only the top pin out but I guess I can't really leave the bottom pin with half a bolt stuck in it.

you would probably find it would be ok as long as pin is in tight

Yeah? I'm in no rush so may just replace the whole thing, if a jobs worth doing...etc etc. Assuming it's not all too expensive.

Thanks for the help James.
