Description Freelander 1 Viscous Coupling parts.
This is what I found inside a Freelander Viscous Coupling, I have drawn it to scale in every way. The silicon fluid that was inside was black and thick as tar but white sprit made it thinner and I could clean the plates with just a paint brush and rags. The smaller plates were the slot is they are sharp as a razor on one side and all the sharp side face the same way when assembled. I have welded it all back together and put new silicon in at 84% fill that was 119 grams. I have made a 10 mm taped hole to fill and plug after filling. Next I will be drawing the drive shafts and all the driveshaft parts in 3D. Pity Haynes Manuals are not in 3D.

The silver plates with holes and slots have 2 notches (inner diameter) in the 12 and 6 o’clock positions. The blue plates also have 2 notches on outer diameter. In your 3d image the blue plates seem to be in the 1 and 7 o’clock positions, relative to the silver plates that are in 12 and 6 positions. Is this how it came apart? Or does it matter? When I took mine apart, the blue plate notches seemed all in the direction. The silver plates were random.

It don't mater if you wobble a bit it will make it easy to get it back in the right place.

Where did you buy the silicon to re fill

+Ian Chester Hi Ian I have shed loads of Silicon left over, I had to buy loads it cost abought 40 or 45 quid inc post on Ebay.

I open it on a lathe, I also opened the wrong end. If I had to do it again I would just drill a hole try to get the silicon out with white sprit and refill. Sorry I never made a video.

Would you put the hole on the side toward the rear or towards the front ?

@PaulDrodge 8 лет назад

+zeferrum I put a hole in the front and rear to make it easy to re fill, It's almost imposable to fill with one hole, the air cant get out.

+Paul Drodge Really nice video Paul, I've done the same job twice now and understand why you would want to avoid cutting it open but it really is the only way to do it right. I suspect any other way will result in a mix of old fluid, new fluid and white spirit. BTW I used approx 150mls of 100k cst fluid when filling mine.
