lamps, voltage regulator, the engine mount on the drivers side is different(it fouls the distro pump, but one from the other side turned up side down apparently does the trick) and also a few studs are in the wrong place..

the only reason copper pipe will fail is if it is not supported correctley ie if you dont put the supports for it (p clips and the little plastic one that seem to get lost or broke and forgotten about).... just to be agumentitive really.:p

make your own but dont buy the laser flaring kit from m****** mart as its crap.... did six flares and borked....:doh: pipe from paddocks is foine and reasonable price as are the fittings..:D

still playing, still having problems starting it, think its a fuel problem though.... sorted one way valve on bottom of dist pump... also changed the washers on lift pump banjo, filter banjo and the dist pump feed banjo.... now its looking like one of the injectors is leeking from the copper...

good work like i said the fun bit is putting it all back together:D:D:doh:

use a thin flexible scraper or blade and be carefull not to chip the glass, also make a note of the spacings, as new channels and ally bits dont always line up, i had the same problem... good luck..

the main problems seem to be between gl4 and gl5 you may have put ep90 in but which was it?? gl5 has additives in which eat brass and quite a few of the bearings contain this in the gaer box and transfer case.. as well as some axle bearings..:eek:

ok thanks guys, i think some one has already had a play so could be all sorts on there, my aim was to get a flaring kit and some pipe and fittings and piece together a jigsaw.:D

:crazy_driver:think mine could be one of those, its an 82 with dual circuit brakes and servo so has twin leading shoes on the front and the bigger cylinders on the back.. :baby:

not to be cheeky but how about the rear cylinder fittings are they not imperial?

any body know what size the brake line should be i know that there is a mixture of metric and imperial fittings but the pipe is all the same size!!:confused:

:D:D got the bastard started and it still knocking so revved the nads off of it and the noise stopped..... still smokey:mad: but may clear after a good warm through.. i think it had a small air leak on the bottom of the distro pump at the feed back to the lift pump, had a spare pipe and one way...

you cant knock them off, the best way really is to grind them but do it slowly and when there is only a thin layer left a quick tap with a hammer and cold chisel will fracture what is left of the collar and then they will come off.;) oh and the chrome balls look well borked, sling em and get...

in the third pic there are two collars on the half shaft.. one is for the bearing in the chrome ball to run on and the other is for the seal in the end of the axle tube to seal against. if they are not in good condition you will kill the seal and get vibration from the half shaft movement...

did you have to alter the engine mount much??:confused:

check the flexy hoses as well if its just the fronts plaing up as i've had them collapse inside and act as a one way valve..:doh:

check that the springs that hold the brake shoes in position are correctly fitted as if not they may be pulling the cylinder pistons all the way back, which means every time you want to brake you will have to pump the pedal a couple of times( even if the adjusters are set correctly).

well done on the progress good to see you've got back into it again..:D

lots of patients.... a few beers some fairy liquid and string and most of all some one pushing from the outside..:D also aftermarket rubbers can sometimes be a bit larger than genuine spares:doh:

one top done and lookin ok one to go!!!:eek:, slow progress.
