Defender into Discovery?

(1/3) > >>

gords:
I've come across someone who has a gearbox and transfer box from a Defender TD, probably 1989.

Is that going to be a R380 gearbox, what are the gear ratio's likely to be and will it all fit into a Discovery 300TDi?

Jas278:
I doubt it very much unless it has been changed, the ratio on transfer box will be different.

dreadnought110:
:? The gear box is wrong it is an lt77 the transfer ratio's are also lower hope this helps :D

I did suspect that it was the LT77 at that age! The lower ratios, however, would probably help with my oversized tyres (235/85x16)!

I stand to be corrected but the gearbox (LT77) should be a straight swop, its the transfer box you will have issues with as the 'lever' (or stick or whatever you want to call it) is in completly the wrong place.
