I have just purchased a 06 tdv6 engine with 60k miles for a disco I have , just wondering if I should change the big end bearings and mains before I fit the engine or am best just let sleeping dogs lye and taking a chance , think I will fit a new oil pump to give it the best chance of life , what's your thoughts

Leave well alone
,pulleys, idler, water pump, and oil pump most major with your new cam belts and New crank bolt.
If I ve missed anything someone else will be along

Thanks I was going to do the belts and pullys and water pump before I fit it as it will be a lot easier to do , so I will leave the bottom end alone , I hope the pick up ring on the end of the crank hasn't been touched in transit as it will be a lot of work to remove the engine again , the engine is coming with injectors so I'm going to take a chance with them , the old ones are high miles and might be the cause of the engine failure as I have not opened the engine up fully yet , but time will tell
