Outstanding step by step episode Dave, just don’t want you to “give away” all your highly developed knowledge…glad your being ‘supervised ‘ by Louis ! ❤ Mahker
Thanks 👍
That is possibly the best video you guys have put up to date 😊
Thank you 🙏 It’s taken us a while to figure out how to do a full how to video
Another really helpful video.......... thanks Dave. 👍
Tried my best to be informative 🤓
I had the pleasure of spotting your 90 - E19 HOS in South Wales this week. Absolutely fantastic road presence!
Spot on with your advice to check the friction plate fits over the splines , seen a friend struggling for hours thinking the clutch was not aligned, but it was the plate itself that was damaged
Oh that valuable lesson comes from having that exactly trouble 🙏
Invaluable information here, convinced me I can do this myself 😂
We’re here to help you’ve just got to buy our kit for support 💪👍
@@wearemahker Just need to find the right donor, was it 204hp narrow bell housing from a late E46? 🤔😂
Great explanation! Thank you and Best Regards to Dave from an italian Defender owner. Stefano
You’re very welcome Stefano.
Really watchable useful video. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
well thought out kit ,,, not cheap , but then again quality never is cheap.
Too true. Buy cheap buy twice. We’ve put a lot of R and D into this too
Really informative video definitely makes it seem achievable 👍 Will you be covering the electrical side of a conversion or would that be too in-depth for a video ? Cheers Oli
Unfortunately Oli we don’t want to give all our secrets away for free much love Dave.
😂 worth a try !
Just a thought, why cut off the oilpan corner when you could have just threaded the adapter? The bolt below seems to thread into the adapter?
Trust Dave! And put your mind at ease!!! Also, nice wrist watch! Is it Mahker?
Now there’s an idea….
Have you ever fitted the newer N57 or B57 BMW engine?
Can we have a branch of mahker in East Africa 😅 dave
TD2 2.5 DISCO 2 FOR ZF8HP70-75 ?
@wearemahker Do you find that the MT82 is happy handling the torque and power of the M57?
Yes very we’ve not had one fail yet
@@wearemahker In stock form? If so, that's good to know, I would like to go for this option but it's hard to find any solid info. Also, are these kits available for the N2 wide block?
@@jakeh86 yes stock long as there’s no huge play. And yes we offer a wide bell housing also

Nice engineering - being OCD one comment , that nice starter plate bolt ear sticks up above your cnc'd aluminium gearbox adapter plate, why not 'tweak' the design so the gearbox plate has a matching ear to match the nice cover - sorry to mention it but know your are all about the detail 🙂
It’s already been revised but thanks for pointing it out sir 💪💪 these covers were for earlier covers but we hate waste.
