(1/3) > >>

digger:
hi there i've got a 300 tdi auto discovery it's got 33 inch tyres on it and i want to change the transfer box to a defender one to help with my gearing will a defender one fit straight in and fit to my auto box

stretchy:
ive heard of people do this.. i think they just fit straight on

Hi  Digger
I fitted a 90 1.4  transfer box to my V8 discovery which had similar sized tyres it improved the gearing a lot ,it was a straight forward change [with some advice from this forum].Keep in mind they are bloody heavy you may need a hand, the wife got under the disco
with me and helped by operating the jack ect.

JIMBOBLY:
the bolt pattern is exactly the same mate,the box is the same,just different internals thats all,but cant remember if yours has the borg warner box,it will still fit,but if it is the borg warner box,you need to modify the transfer box linkage a little

Range Rover Blues:
Just read on another forum that a B-W has a longer front prop as it's a shorter gearbox.  Never checked though.
