The diff pan had a guard that trapped mud/moisture. I did wonder what was going to be left of the casing, but its looking OK.
Clean up job will commence in time. Most brackets are sound I think but the stripping wheel will reveal all.
They are the later large calipersā¦better than the small early type.
Now that confuses me.(later than your 87)
Unless some one has upgraded the callipers..
Normally these appeared from 300tdi on ward
The fact that has no number along with narrow arm brackets, larger axle end caps, swivel housing style suggest it is the original axle. I fact it looks just like my 1990 one [which is original] with more rust. Not that bad though looks like it...
Not 100% certain it has been replaced...but getting a positive ID will be needed at some point.
Rear is a Sailsbury.
Caliper photo inbound shortly. Judging by the fact some of the zinc and yellow passivate is still visible, and the discs are...
Why do you think the axle may not be original. It is just because the rear has been changed? Axles are very easy to rebuild so unless there is a very good reason they are not something people tend to change. Especially as the front already has...
Like many 40 year old Land Rovers Izzy has seen a few mods. Originally a 1987 vintage 110 the engine, gearbox and back axle have all been swapped at some point.
An ID of the front axle has so far eluded me. Been over the tube with a wire brush...
The injector wont be over fueling - the quanitity of fuel is the job of the fuel pump - but if the injector is not atomising the fuel correctly it might not be burning evenly, creating a potential hot spot.
Testing an injector spray pattern...
Local heat buildup.
If its one cylinder only then over fueling injector or blocked oil gallery in the piston crown are possible causes, with the latter only relevant if the 200TDI has oil cooled pistons. Local blockage in coolant gallery might...
Previous days have been spent getting the axles ready to drop. Most bolts were tight but shifted with a little heat. One was subject to the slitting wheel for failure to cooperate.
Whilst poking around I took a look at the swivel housings and...
they are in PNG format and rendered with MS paint so the colours do not bleed into each other unlike other formats so if you down load them and open with MS paint and zoom they should stay as is
These are very good and thank you.
Have you recreated them by chance? Would there be a PDF available that does not pixelate when zoomed in? At my age...my eyes need all the help possible...
A multimeter is a constant toolbox companion. Strongly recommended.
So is a wiring diagram. I have an '87 110 and I'm still looking. Can find miliary wiring diagram, and rough copy/difficult to read civvy examples. If you find one, please share here.
Well the proof is In the eating or in this case drooling š out with the copper and in with the stainless.
Fitted some brass olives each end to stop the hose clamps from pulling off. Looking rather good if I do say so myself.
Only haste was that...
Rdx electric fan and switch fitted with a custom made loom, temporary made brackets made to hold the new expansion water bottle and power steering bottle. New indicator and wiper stalks fitted and all of the electrics tested. A few gremlins...
Some readers will know the LH front radius arm thread is...knackered:
So I picked up a pair of secondhand arms from another local restorer/enthusiast fellow. A snip at £20 for the pair.
One of the very first jobs I did as a MoD apprentice was...
You deffo need new bolts in there ...
You need:
4 off M16 x100mm bolts (10.9) - BX116201L
4 off M16 Nyloc nuts
8 off M16 Washers
2 off M20 Washers - for the back end, you can use the originals.
2 off M20 Nyloc nuts...
Slackening the front axle radius arm nuts last night on Izzy revealed the LH one was...showing less than optimum on the thread:
A die nut might recover that. But its asking a lot. And cost of a die nut is likely to be more than a second hand...
I've managed to hurt my Knee pretty good, this has brought progress on all fronts down to a crawl, however I have managed to get the brackets for changing the transfer box finished.
I'll have to do this on the floor, but it is a nice smooth, dry...
The shuttle vavle came off and is now in bits, being cleaned up for reassembly.
The plastic switch seems to be fouling the shuttle valve itself if fully screwed down. No washer was there so head scratching time for assembly to make it work...
