			TD5 Head Dowels
		
			
				
					Go direct to Landrover for these off the later TD5 (2002 on).
 
 When I did my 1999 Defenders head in 2001 we made the dowels (and drilled expansion holes through them).
 
 On my wifes car when I did the head gasket (a 2001 Disco with 240 000 km) brought a kit from the UK that had factory dowels in it (in the factory packaging).  They fitted straight in.
 
 Regards, Toad.

					As above, 
 
 I got them from LR. The genuine steel dowels were a straight fit in my 2001 which originally had the plastic dowels, and the dowels, all gaskets, seals, head bolts and so on came from LR.

					Price up with LR but otherwise order out of the UK. Even with postage it will be a LOT cheaper.
