rangerover auto box into discovery 200 series

<< < (2/2)

Range Rover Blues:
The kick-down cable goes into the throttle cable braket below the spindle and lower/behind the throttle cable.  When you stomp on the loud pedal the kick-down should get pulled out.  It routes down the back of the engine, missing the exhaust.

Pedal box, ideally you should fit the bigger brake pedal but you can just remove the clutch for now, othert than that it's all the same.

Auto selector come up on E-Bay now and then, I bought a spare one.  You need the shifter handle and the console insert, the lever in a manual goes onto differnet bracket on top of the gearbox IIRC.

On the back of the engine you need everything from the crank backwards and as the first adapter is very hard to shift you'll be lucky if it was taken off for you.

You need the oiul cooler pipes from the gearbox to the radiator/bog brush coolers.  Luckily you can extend/modify them with hydraulic flexi hose, they run at about 1 bar so if you make the joints secure it will be fine.

Mine is currenlty spread all over teh drive, you could have popped round and had a look ;)

Is there somewhere i can get a brake down of the components in the bell housing (e.g list or pictures) would it be in a haynes manual??.

Do i need a rrc selector or can i use a 200/300 disco one??

Range Rover Blues:
If the selector was for a ZF 4 speed then it's the same thing.  Haynes manual might well have a picture but the LR manual is better on this I think.  Trouble is which one.

The 300 TDi manual includes the R380 and LT230, nothing else and the V8 manual has no gearboxs in it IIRC so choose carefully.

nothing is ever easy when its mine  :(
