Looks like a 7F to me meaning it came from a 420.

Thanks for the image enhancement! my eyes must be getting terrible Now we know definitively! I'm always greatful for your help and insight

Good choice. I have one of those tucked away as a spare. And yours should be a short stud block which is preferable. Check its engine number here http://www.jag-lovers.org/xk-lovers/library/engine_numbers.htm Wow, according to that link I may have done better than I thought. This appears to be a Se...

Thank you so much! that answered all my questions. I have a deal I can't pass up on this 1967 engine, runs with 67,000 original miles. I'm guessing it came out of a 420 but being as my E has pitted cams and probably a pitted crank this will get us flying sooner than later. :wavegreatbritain: https:/...

originally produced by intimo not current production

This is the style of stub axle with the recessed nut

Wow, thank you guys for all the insightful responses. That's all quality information on the different variations and setup. This is what I came up with so far, It's probably a bit overkill but you can see where i'm going with it. I'll dig out the welder tomorrow and burn it together https://i.postim...

It works out to about 47mm or 1-55/64th so i'll just build one it wont cost me anything but scrap and time. This is how you build a spanner from scrap.

I've resolved myself to build a spanner like the large spanner like Mgjag posted, i'll post pictures when done. It seems like salisbury used 3 different variations of the stub axle assemblies in the 4HU. One with the nut recessed past flush with the carrier, one with the nut protruding past the carr...

I have a salisbury 4hu out of a 1967 e-type. Does anyone have a picture or part number for the tool to remove the nut? :shrug: this nut is recessed in there so you can't get at it with a vice https://i.postimg.cc/B6GTk7y8/DPP-0005.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/QxrG8c9c/20190221-183057.jpg https://i.posti...

Take to a bearing shop and ask for a sleeve for it. These sleeves are made of a very thin steel hoop that fits over the area where the seal rubs, and are slightly undersize so they need to be forced on. It's set up to do this with a peel off flange that you push it on with, and a simple tool to pus...

After closer inspection of my companion flange I noticed some minor pitting. It's probably near impossible to see from this picture but it's there. I haven't been able to source a replacement being as it appears this part is discontinued so my only other option at this time is to take it to a cranks...

Thanks for the heads up!! My JCNA membership is pending.

Im working on the differential for my 1967 2+2 E-type, Im hoping this clamshell puller for a dana 44 will work. Any thoughts or opinions? I'm hoping to use the old bearings as setup bearings if i don't damage them too much http://www.ebay.com/itm/CARRIER-BEARING-PULLER-DANA-30-40-60-70-FORD-9-/25165...

I was comparing pictures between the interior of the new lightweight jaguar e-type and mine and i noticed the tach and speedometer are switched, is this something they do on race cars? http://www.westernmorningnews.co.uk/images/localworld/ugc-images/276272/Article/images/22715435/6743259-large.jpg h...

8) I'm trying to get my 1967 jaguar E type 2+2 on the road, i've owned it for 13 years now. The IRS is getting rebuilt first. I have it pulled out I'm having a devil of a time getting the handbrake compensator off the cage, I tried to turn one of the 2 mounting bolts and its just spinning, I can't q...
