Progress report as a way of a thank you for all the info I have received from the group


1 Perkins 4203 and a lt 95 box removed


200 tdi from a disco and lt77 box in place and all lined up Some of the wiring in place



Started it up today at last !



Problems so far



Had to cut the seat box to get the gear box in place not a major piece of work just a little relief to let the high low selector cover sits in place Connected the box up to the rear shaft and found the front shaft is now to short by about 3 inches ! Making and placing engine mounts , hole in the mount is in line with the damper bolts Rad bottom out let is catching on the steering relay have to work this one out yet ! Continuous winning noise ,sorted , sent her shopping



Annoying things



Fitted a new oil pressure switch , and broke the top of with the last turn of the spanner Forgot it had an oil cooler and dumped lots of oil on my garage floor Trying to find a 12 v feed for the pump solenoid that didn't drop when the engine was cranked



Thanks for all the info posted for the problems I have had so far , im sure the will be more !
