Title: Rad and intercooler for 300 tdi
Post by: snezza69 on November 05, 2005, 18:35:10

In my travels I came accross the rad and intercooler for a 300 but it came out of a Disco.  Will it fit without mods?  I friend did mention that it may be an inch taller but not sure!  If you have a 300 in a defender could you measure the height for me please?  From the top of the bracket on the chassis!!! :)  :)  :)

You'll want to check the widths too... I think the Disco assembly is wider.

the disco/rangie/defender is all the same apart from different variations on the radiator pipes,its the same frame that they fit in except its mounted differently at the botom of the discos,my 200tdi 90 breaths through a 200tdu disco rad n intercooler  :wink:

I agree with Mikee on that.  I fitted the disco 300tdi into my 90 front end, slipped in a treat!

Thanks fellas, thats one less mod needed before the chassis goes for galvanising.

Apart from engine mounts and a change of crossmember, there shouldnt be anything else to do with the chassis.............is there?
