Transfer box

(1/2) > >>

big tim:
On the way to work this morning my disco started to vibrate whilst accelerating and make a horrid metallic noise. Once at work i checked the props the rear had some movement so i ordered some bearings and fitted them when i got home. when i test drove the disco the vibrating and noise where still there.Now after some more investigation when i twist the front prop there seems to be quite a bit of metallic clunking coming from the transfer box. OH [!Expletive Deleted!]. If the transfer box is knackered can it be replaced with one from any defender/disco or will it have to be from a 3.9 auto disco?. Cheers Tim :'(

ben_haynes:
what age is it ???

yes it is a straight swap for a Disco / Defender / Range Rover (dependant on Age & Model)

i have one out of a 1990 (G) 3.5 Disco (200 series) if you need one

big tim:
Its a 1998 3.9v8 auto. Should know more tommorow night after a friend has cast his over it. Will let you know Ben thankyou

bilge rat:
sure youll be ok with bens but think you'll find the ratio different on defender t/box's. theres usually a ratio stamp just below the level plug to the left. think disco's are 1.222.   alan.....
