cookie64 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Hi all, I'm currently in the position of refitting an LT77 and LT230 to a friends truck and I can't find information anywhere about the lever adjustments. mainly the info I need is the lever that switches between Hi/Neutral/Low passes over an Eye bolt as a Pivot point and this is adjustable In/Out does anyone know how far out this should be to be set up correctly? Thanks Tom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reb78 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 I thought the eye bolt was the pivot for the diff lock mechanism? I removed mine yesterday and noted its position - i had about two threads showing towards the eye when the lock nut was done up Hope that helps!

cookie64 Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 it seems to be the one part I forgot to take a photo of, im just not sure how much it matters? Also do you know what bolts are required for the bell housing to rear of engine join? im currenly looking at diagrams online and struggling to find them maybe one for ralph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reb78 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Yep, that eye bolt is for the difflock. The hi lo is the bar that moves diagonally backwards beside the gearbox. Set the eye bolt up as mine and then try it before putting the tunnel back together perhaps. The bell housing attaches to the studs in the flywheel housing - the nuts used a 17mm spanner yesterday - not sure on the thread though.

landroversforever Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 17mm will be M10 assuming they're a standard type bolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveturnbull Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 The only real way to get it right is to test it. I had to take mine on and off a few times to get it right, just trial and error really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
