Description

Land Rover TUL HS TUM HS & TUM Ambulance Repair Instruction AESP 2320-D-128-522

The Land Rover TUL HS TUM HS & TUM Ambulance Repair Instruction AESP 2320-D-128-522 is an extensive Army Equipment Support Publication covering Unit repair procedures for Truck Utility Light (TUL) HS, Truck Utility Medium (TUM) HS and TUM Ambulance HS vehicles. The publication identifies coverage for all variants and includes the many GS, FFR, ambulance, winter/water, winterised, tropicalised and specialist configurations represented in the equipment identity section.

This is a particularly broad repair reference. It follows the vehicle from the 2.5 Litre 300 Tdi direct injected turbocharged diesel engine through clutch and transmission components, front and rear axles, power assisted steering, suspension and braking, then continues into fuel and exhaust, cooling, electrical equipment, chassis and body repairs, electric winch work and heating and ventilation systems. Procedures are supported throughout by component drawings, exploded views, torque data, adjustment values, special-tool information, removal and refitting sequences, inspection criteria and safety precautions.

Vehicle and Variant Coverage

The equipment identity section makes this more than a single-configuration Land Rover repair manual. It lists 93 equipment identities across the TUL HS, TUM HS and battlefield ambulance families. The entries include right-hand-drive and left-hand-drive vehicles, soft-top and hard-top bodies, GS and FFR configurations, Non EEGR and EEGR versions, winter/water and winterised vehicles, tropical and desert ambulances, and specialist installations.

Among the configurations identified in the publication are Ambulance Battlefield (HS) 4 Stretcher vehicles, FFR vehicles, Bowman-equipped variants, Medical Monitoring installations, air-droppable TUL vehicles, Helicopter Support and Talon Support vehicles, ODETTE and WILDCAT installations, SPICE, NBC Support, Media Operations Support vehicles, Defence Monitoring System vehicles, Scout variants, the WMIK Trainer, TETHYS IK and Land Rover 130 Double Cab Pick Up configurations. Procedures that differ for environmental or specialist versions are separated into dedicated sub-chapters where required.

Repair Information and Workshop Depth

The engine material provides detailed work on the 2.5 Litre 300 Tdi, including engine mounting brackets and cylinder-head removal, dismantling, examination and reassembly. It covers the rocker shaft, valves and valve springs, valve-seat work, valve clearances, manifolds, thermostat housing, heater plugs, fuel injectors, drive belt and pulleys, sump, oil pressure relief valve, oil cooler, oil filter head, oil temperature control valve and breather components. The procedures include illustrated tightening sequences, gasket-selection information, service limits and torque figures rather than simply describing where components are located.

The driveline sections continue with clutch hydraulic components, master and slave cylinder dismantling and repair, clutch bleeding and pedal settings. Five-speed manual gearbox coverage includes the gear lever and gearbox mountings. The LT230T chapter covers the transfer-box installation together with propeller-shaft removal, dismantling and universal-joint reassembly. The publication specifically states that no LT230T transfer gearbox repairs are applicable at this level of repair, so the detailed work in that chapter concentrates on the propeller shafts.

Axle work is extensive. Front axle procedures include complete axle removal, hubs, bearings and shim selection, stub axles, axle shafts, constant velocity joints, swivel assemblies, differential removal and refitting, steering-lock settings and running-in procedures. Separate heavy-duty and standard rear axle chapters deal with half shafts, hubs, bearings, stub axles, differentials, backlash checks and post-repair running-in. The drawings identify individual parts and the text supplies the associated measurements and tightening values required during reassembly.

Power assisted steering coverage includes the steering column and collapsible shaft, steering box, hydraulic system filling and bleeding, system pressure testing, pump removal, drop-arm ball joint overhaul, steering damper, track rod, drag link, wheel alignment and steering lock stops. Suspension chapters distinguish between TUL, TUM GS, TUM FFR and Ambulance arrangements, with procedures for Panhard rods, radius arms, shock absorbers, road springs, anti-roll bars, lower and upper links, pivot brackets and ball joints.

Taken together, these chapters provide a technician with step-by-step information for mechanical, hydraulic, electrical, chassis and body work across a wide range of Land Rover TUL/TUM military configurations. The document is especially useful where a repair differs between standard, FFR, ambulance or environmental variants because those differences are divided into dedicated sections rather than treated as one generic vehicle configuration.

Illustrated Procedures, Settings and Repair Data

The Land Rover TUL HS TUM HS & TUM Ambulance Repair Instruction AESP 2320-D-128-522 contains a large number of workshop illustrations. Examples include exploded cylinder-head components, engine disconnection points, clutch hydraulic assemblies, propeller-shaft universal joints, front and rear hub assemblies, CV joints and swivel housings, steering components, suspension links, brake assemblies, body fittings, winch components and heating equipment.

IMAGES PREVIEW

Repair sequences frequently include torque lists and inspection limits alongside the procedure. Engine material, for example, supplies cylinder-head bolt tightening information, valve-clearance settings and gasket-selection measurements. Axle chapters provide hub-bearing setup, drive-shaft end play, swivel resistance and differential procedures. Steering includes hydraulic pressure testing and linkage settings, while suspension sections specify tightening values and the conditions under which suspension bushes are to be torqued. Cooling work covers draining and filling, radiator, thermostat, viscous coupling, fan, water pump and gearbox oil cooler procedures.

The chassis and body sections add another layer that is uncommon in a purely mechanical manual. Chassis information includes frame alignment and dimensional references for TUL, TUM and Field Ambulance vehicles. Body material covers panel work, welding, riveting, painting, soft-top and hard-top assemblies, doors, rear bodies, roll cages and FFR-related fittings. Dedicated chapters also document winterised insulation and fittings, tropicalised ambulance components and the Helicopter Support Platform installation.
