Defender into Discovery?

<< < (2/3) > >>

dreadnought110:
:) I think you will find the bell housing is a lot longer on the r380.Whwen i had the td in mine the bell housing ended at the bulkhead and now with the r380 theres about 6 inches between the bulkhead and the end of the bell housing oh and the transfer box should fit on your r380 but be sure you want the ratio's that low :?

bobtail4x4:
I have a range rover transfer box to do a swap if you want?

--- Quote from: "Bob696" ---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.

no its the other way about

a disco LT77 is a long bellhousing to push the engine forward.a defedner LT77 is a short bellhousing to keep the engine back & the sticks forward,
if you fit a disco box onto a def engine you end up with the sticks up through the seat box unless you swap casings about,also a def Tbox is 1.4 unless its a NA 110 T box which is 1.6,but 99% o the time its a 1.4 which is what you need to keep drivability if you have 235/85/16 tyres or bigger on your disco

does any o that make sense?  :?

PM for you...

extreme90:
the gearbox is different
disco ...short stick...long bellhousing
defender...long stick....short bellhousing

get under a 200 disco and have a looksy, and look at the gear lever set up

if you get i disco box the td will mate up tho that but you will also need disco engine mounts as they are different
may i ask why tho ??  :?
itll be just so underpowered...or u doing it for the hell of it?
im fitting a n/a into a disco fo the fun of it  :lol:
