    Engine is back out. Is there something dumb I'm missing about getting the torque converter to seat all the way? Just keep playing with it?

    I get this close and it doesn't seem to want to go any farther. Does the torque converter weld bead appear to be in about the right spot relative to the inspection hole? Really don't want to pull the engine back out just to visually confirm that the torque converter is fully seated.

    Pretty sure you're right. Rain stopped and I dropped the rear drive shaft and slid the transmission and transfer case back. I was able to get the pin of the torque converter out of the engine and pushed the torque converter back onto the transmission. I'll try again tomorrow.

    Motor is in the engine bay and on the mounts. Really struggling to get the transmission to mate up. Bell housing and block are square to each other, just can't seem to draw them together. Pretty sure the pin on the torque converter is in the right spot. Contemplating disconnecting the rear...

    Persistent P0430 on my 2012 5.0

    IDK. I'd have to poke around in the tool and my vehicle doesn't have a battery in it so someone else will need to chime in.

    Anyone running 20" Defender wheels?

    20" are fine on something like a fire road. Anything more adventurous, get the 18" steelies.

    Persistent P0430 on my 2012 5.0

    Clear the fuel adaptions after you installed the thing? On another vehicle I had an exhaust leak. After fixing it I got a CEL lambda code. Reset the computer and I was good.

    New flywheel bolts are a different drive type. Engineers at JLR are killing me. Old flywheel bolts were E12, new flywheel bolts are EP14. Add the RIBE 8 exhaust manifold bolts and I'm going to lose my mind.

    Not sure when I broke this, but it goes on the end of the short hose coming out of the throttle body. The barb that goes into that hose broke, fat side connects to LR 014567, barb coming off at an angle connects to nothing if I remember right. What part is this?

    New motor is getting all dressed up. Oil cooler, valve covers, and high pressure fuel pumps are on. Drilled out some holes in the intakes and put in some heli-coils. Went to the dealer for parts twice today. A bunch of the gasket kits I got were incomplete, very frustrating. Have to go back...

    Think the offspring of a forklift and a boom lift. A giant wheeled thing with forks and an extension boom. You might be able to rent by the hour for your situation.

    Permatex ultra gray sensor safe good enough for the valve covers? Manual calls for loctite 5900/5901g.

    Old motor is in the shipping crate, new motor is on the stand. Those flywheel bolts were absolutely bathed in red loctite, big 1/2" impact really had to work. I went 9 for 10 though. One of them rounded over and I tried every trick short of welding a nut on. I resorted to just gently...

    Do durable side wall tires exist for the LR4?

    Tire is toast. If off roading you should have a full size spare in the back or on a tire carrier.

    If the supercharger is coming off, they better do the rear crossover pipe.

    Yeah, long block doesn't include valve covers. Part of why I waited to order parts until it arrived. Took some digging, but found the part number for the flex plate to crank bolts, LR096833. Any know what the torque converter bolts part number is?

    It has arrived. Time to order just about every sensor I can. Last thing I want to do is have to remove the supercharger to replace something like the knock sensor. Also started pulling up torque specs and am surprised at some of them. Exhaust manifold, 18Nm. Torque converter, 63Nm.

    UHMW ain't cheap. If you go with the 1/2" plywood you'll probably want to use T-nuts. 1/2" isn't going to have much holding power with a screw.

    Thoughts on making a dipstick from some AN fittings, piece of tubing from McMaster, and a universal dorman stick? Banjo bolt adapter in place of the drain plug, to a 5/16 tubing adapter. Either stainless or aluminum tubing run up with the high pressure fuel line. Probably around $90 in parts...
