As far as I can remember from the one I used to service for a local company, it has no low range but it does have an electronic central difflock operated from a dash switch IRC.

I think it is their concession to not having a low-box.  Supposedly an extra-low first gear.  In practice I don't remember it being particularly low - it is certainly in the main gear box - not a separate set of low gears.

Same as in my Land Cruiser.

P = Park
R = Reverse
D = Drive
2 = Second
L = Low (or first) as in lowest gear.

hi guys can u explain this then?


Remeber that's the lever for the gearbox, not the transfer case.

If it was a low ratio it would be a 2nd set of gears being brought in by the transfer case, not by the gearbox.

As above, L for lowest gear.

As in yes there is a low gear in the gearbox.

There's also a high gear and a couple of other gears in between.

If you took away the lowerest gear then the next one up would then become the low gear.

If you took away the 3 lowest gears then the high gear would then become the low gear, but it would also be the highest.

No it doesn't have a low ratio transfer case.

Is it lower than standard? What's standard?  If it's fitted to that car then it's standard for that car.
