Full Version: LT77 gearbox extension-cases swap

Hi folks,

I've got a 'minor' problem with my gearbox, just when I could drive my first meters with the car

It doesn't stay in reverse!

I need a Longstick box to suit my RR, and I have plenty of LT's of variing types laying around which should work fine.

so I'd like to know, can i swap the case-extension of the longstickbox with i.e. the later shortstickbox versions?

or even better with an R380?

hope to hear!

Grtzz,

Rolandrover

In typical LR style, I think the answer is yes and no. Some LT77s can be swapped and others can't!

Unfortunately I don't know the details of which are compatible with which. I do know that there are some fundamental differences between earlier LT77s and late ones.

Hopefully someone with more specific knowledge will be along soon! However if you've got some lying about then I would suggest some trial and error. I bought a few gearboxes with this swap in mind (actually the other way round) and found two of them to be incompatible.

Henry's right, some you can, some you can't,

please advise the serial numbers of the boxes you have and what you want to end up with and I will let you know what you can use,
