FTC651 Spacer-crankshaft Discovery 1
 

https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/landrov...6a4ef01a90.jpg
I have a 94 Se 7Landrover discovery 1, and bolt snapped on this spacer which bolts to front of flexplate. I have been searching all over the US and in
Europe. I was told parts are interchangeable between 94-98, and Im finding this is not true. I need this part right away .
That is the oem part numberFTC651 which is obsolete and no longer available.
I have contacted landrover used parts people all over the country. If someone knows where i can get one, please respond right away. Love my landrover and not ready to give up on her yet, but she is tore apart at a mechanic and I need this part yesterday

I should have one. Let me check.

Hello, thanks for your quick response. I tried calling this guy, and he misunderstood what I said, and he hung up on me. I have to describe the part to to a t since there are several parts which are spacers but they are the wrong one for this landrover.

great information, and help, still searching.

Like I said, a lot of people selling these parts are not really clear on the differences between the early ('94-'95) DI's and the later GEMS versions ('96-'99). I'm sorry I didn't have the part you needed but I'll make some calls for you later today to see if I can't dig one up for you.
Cheers,
Paul

that is really nice of you Paul. today is my birthday and I hope I find one.

Wouldn't be hard to repair the one you have, surprised the mech isn't able. Definitely can tell a few bolts where broken for sometime considering they've carved pretty decent witness marks in the hub.

What makes the part rare is that it's for an auto trans, not as abundant as the manuals.

Would the Classic have a different flywheel hub than the ZF equipped Disco?

I took one off a 95, you cannot repair this. I seriously doubt you know what you are talking about.

I seriously know your unaware that I once was a Machinist who worked on much more precise and hardened fittings than a crank hub for a flywheel. Pretty simple affair and task. Best of luck!

OMG, dude even when you want to help you still can't win. " I seriously doubt you know what you are talking about." :laugh:

I was thinking the same repair option because I've successfully done at least 10 of these. You're right, not a hard job if you have the tools. I guess it's just easier for some to listen to a lazy tech. Roverlady1....I wish you the Best of Luck too. :cheers:

No big deal. Funny thing, I just removed two snapped bolts from a 3' freezer condensor fan. TIG welded bolts to the flush broken studs, wrenched them out.

good bye folks
 

again here is someone who does not have a clue. No you cannot fix the part with the broken bolts. The same problem will happen again when the whole thing shifts again. The post was posted to get help finding a part.
I towed my vehicle 100 miles to get away from a bunch of idiots who have no clue how to fix any car. I completely trust my mechanic. And by the way
I was a mechanic before this kid was even born.

ihscouts and over rover you both have no clue! If you cannot read a post and respond correctly, then do not respond!
The forum is a great thing for people to hear other people's experiences!
Since this is very rare , you both have never had this happen. Being a machinist means nothing. If the hole for the screw is stretched from the shifting after the bolts broke. You cannot fix that!!!! I would never trust

you to work on a tricycle.

Hey, thanks for the update. Glad you shared your experience with the forum.

Roverlady1, I now completely understand the logic you've used to come to this conclusion.
Thanks for the insight, I feel so much closer to you now. :laugh:
I hope all works out well for you!

Geez. Lady, you just alienated two the most experienced folks on this forum.

Good luck.

WOW.....someone got their bits in a bunch.

The butt hurt is strong with this one.......:laugh::laugh:

fish apparently you have never seen the fuel pump assembly on a 94 landrover se7. you are wrong buddy. dont insinuate that im stupid because you think that women are not mechanics. I have been rebuilding cars for 45 years.
I started grabbing landrovers when i found lazy men trashing and throwing them in the junk yards and parting them out when they dont know how to fix them.
landrovers are a ford engine with a fancy body and a bunch of annoying sensors.
when regulary mechanics look at them they think what idiot would build it like that. Yes I do love landrovers and rangerovers but its the most annoying vehicle I have ever worked on. The one im restoring had bad brake sensors so they gave up on it.

The fuel pump on a 94 is the same all the way up to mid 97. The trim line, SE7, SD, LE, etc has no bearing on the fuel pump.
And you should probably stop talking before you further embarrass yourself. Every North American Discovery 1, 2, RRC, P38, D90 and D110 have a BUICK based engine, not a Ford. Please don't tell me people pay you money to work on their trucks?


I'm sure you know plenty about these vehicles and I think its great that you work on them. I'm just saying there's ways to offer up advice without insisting you are absolutely correct.

Disco Mike disappears in 2015.....almost exactly a year later this ray of sunshine joins and obviously knows at least as much as him......hmmm
Could it be???? :laugh::laugh::laugh:

Loosen up my rusty nuts, that answers all my "WTF" questions.
