Same AFAIK... the same bracket is also used on the Defender 200Tdi.

You then just need all the bits...

I.e. the correct crank damper, the pas bottle and pipes, the pas pump, the correct steering box, the lower steering column (I think) and I seem to remember the alternator is different - but may be wrong.

And some pas fluid....

I think that's it.

A bigger bar....

If you get stuck, I've got all the correct damper locking tools and puller... rather than doing the lovely breaker bar on the chassis and bounce the starter motor trick.
