Thank you mate should be ok mate getting there now I'll update the thread and make a proper on my experience of the xud11 conversion and try get some pics up
Right ok so today's progress remember the fact I can't for some reason do pics so I'll explain best as I can and try and set up a fresh thread.
Ok so first of all fitted the gearbox with the xud9 fork inside cleaned and greased. And fitted it up and its on.
Second got the aux bracket off the non air con xud9 motor...it didn't fit failed epicly...so had a look it was catching on the lugs on the sump? Wtf so I done what any farmers son does and got the 9inch grinder out and hey presto all 3 bolts line up and its in with its PAS pump but the alternator has gone walk about so that needs finding.
then I fitted the injectors bosch obv and fitted the glow plugs with the cross loom on.
Then the thermostat of the xud9 new gaskets guick clean and paint plonked it on and done 90% of the plumming needed to the engine
And then mounted the bosch up and then the lines. I had two bosch lines fitted spot on and two Lucas lines needed fettling but they went this is after I messed up and bent all the lines in the wrong places u till piggy helped me.out cheers mate
so next up is turbo and inlet manifold. Cheers
