[ROVERNET - UK] P5 jockey pulley (was interesting pair)

[Kent Kinard]

Hi Clyde, good to hear from you.  It would take a 40 foot container to 
ship all the stuff I'd like to bring back from NZ. I feel like someone 
on this side will have what is needed.  The RCCC probably has the setup 
I need in their recycle yard.  Miles took pictures when he was in BC and 
there was at least one Mk. II rusting away up there.

Yes, Paul.  I love cats, too.  It's just an expression.  I have two ways 
to go to drive the dynamo.  The 100's and very early P5's did not use 
the jockey pulley. Beginning sometime in '60 (I think) the jockey pulley 
was added as part of the power steering setup and standardized for both 
power steering and non-power steering engines.  The inner belt drove the 
  dynamo and the power steering pump which was mounted to the back of 
the dynamo while the outside belt drove the water pump and was tensioned 
by the jockey pulley.  The engine is a 3 liter Mk. I, but is fitted to 
my P4 100.  My desire is to eventually fit A/C which I salvaged from a 
'59 Land Rover SI, but to get the car back on the road I can either use 
the jockey pulley setup which will make it easier to fit the A/C or I 
can use the 100 dynamo pulley and adjuster (which I don't have because 
the engine that came out of the 100 was actually from a 105R.)  Before 
you tell me that the 105R engine won't bolt to the standard trans (which 
is true), I'll say that the engine was rebuilt and the crank modified by 
the previous owner who managed to let his 6 yr. old grandson fill the 
crankcase with petrol by leaving the ignition switch on.  The result was 
spun big ends.  It's a long story.  If you don't have the pulley, send 
me a cat.  Mine died at age 17 last spring.  The 3 litre wouldn't bolt 
to the trans that was in the car either, but you're probably bored by 
now so I'll stop.

Roverepeatedly,
Kent K.
