Camshaft bearings 1 , 2 and 3 from the front of engine now fitted and cam turns nicely in them. Unfortunately I had the tool adjusted incorrectly whilst fitted the last one , a bit slack , and the bearing folded in on itself.... at least I know it is do-able now however. Will just have to order...

The ones from turner engineering fit well in my engine. Not a total success ( though that was user error )more info in my thread in this sub forum.

Yes it needs line boring. I am doing the same at the moment but all four. I have ordered the pre-finished ones from turner engineering which are supposed to be a direct fit and require no machining. Guess i will soon find out.

All bearings removed and noticed they have arrows stamped onto the outside diameter like this -> Directions of arrows on bearings arranged as in picture below Does this mean they have to be pressed in from this direction? Or press the lot in from the front and just keep them arranged the...

Its arrived all shiny and new! :D No instructions but found them quickly enough online. Using the tool was pretty much self explanatory. Using expander no.2 and three blows with an heavy hammer no.1 bearing was out! ^ inserting tool into bearing number 2 ^ How it looks when it is...

Edit: Scratch that... Actually lack of access between 2 and 3 is making me cautious of drifting a bearing into somewhere where it looks impossible to remove. Things should be clearer when i receive the tool as being an expanding type it may be possible , or not , to drift them both out in...

Think it looks worse in pic but yes it is pretty bad. Looking again there is a smaller feed hole approaching the top of the bearing which is in line so yes this must be correct.

That’s right yes the big one on the rear. Does not look like the oil holes on the very front one have been lined up properly. Must of been like this from new :eek:

Cheers :) have just been looking at mine again and interestingly 3 and four bearings look almost like new. Definitely loads of checking and marking up to be done and then checking again. Think the ones behind number 1 have to be drifted out towards the front because of lack of access between 2...

Would used be an option? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LAND-ROVER-FREELANDER-TD4-MANUAL-GEAR-LINKAGE-2000-2006/233181289706?fits=Model%3AFreelander&hash=item364ab01cea:g:Un0AAOSwDuJW1EKH

Typing part number in John craddock website gives a result.

So a couple of days ago I ordered one of these... First and second bearings on a block I am rebuilding don’t look so great. local engine shop did not sound over thrilled at the prospect of fitting new ones warning that they can press new ones in but if the cam does not fit afterwards they...

Rear washers should be ( pre td5 ) 90 4x nrc6235 4x ryf500240

Which washers are you short? The ones for the bottom of rear shock? I think the original ones will be ok/ are the same. Wondering if there has been a mix up as the td5 rears had cups prebuilt into the axle mount , one on each side. And ooh snap! ;) Your post prompted me to order some new as I...

Another optimill recommendation. Good customer service too.

What are you over painting the panel with? I would guess it is some type of 1k etch primer.

It’s out!

Thank you James. A little perplexing to think of how this has happened? And little unsure of how best to go about removing the dowel from the main cap as there is not a great amount of it showing. Might have to resort to drilling using a pillar drill , tapping and some sort of bolt , slide...

Just a little bump to see if anyone viewing this new can answer the above. Parts diagram shows 10 x 501593 locating pin. I have 9 fitted in block and a stump of one possibly fitted in no.1 main cap? It must of run like this and seems to locate ok so if not as lr intended would this be likely to...

Google motor & diesel engineering anglia. They can supply as a kit to convert. I have been mulling over this myself for my own.
