Fireyred:
Hi,

I have a new ignition barrel to fit today on my 90.

How do you get the old one off?

Cheers

MuddyMachine:
Hi, you need to drill out the exstisting bolts and replace them with new shear bolts when fitting the new barrel

Fireyred:
Doh!

had a feeling you might say that.

 :doh:

Fireyred:
Why did paddocks not tell me i needed new bolts, or better still for what they charge why did they not include them....grrr :evil: Mad now, and rang two placed who say they don't do them.

Tut

Wolfie:
Looking at the catalogue at http://www.bearmach.com/acatalog/index.html it looks as if the part number is 51K4001L which loads of people have listed http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=51K4001L&meta= . They could well be available from your local LR dealer at a reasonable cost.

Alternatively, I have on other types of car managed to remove the old shear bolts using a hammer and centre punch to undo the bolt and then use the same method to retighten but it does take ages. I don't know if it's possiblee to try this method on a Defender with the column in situ.
