frrfrr Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 hi , having just driven my neighbours defender i have noticed that his gearbox is a lot easier to find the gears, mine being a bit vague. having owned and driven my landy for 3 years , i have grown acustom to were all the gears are . can anyone tell me if there is anyway to improve my gear selection. both the neighbours and my land rover has a lt77 gear box. regards frrfrr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 (edited) probably need to adjust the lever bias spring bolts, the lever should move easily between 3rd/4th in a straight line Edited June 19, 2007 by western attachment added Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Litch Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 I don't know if it will help your paticular problem but I found that replacing the gearbox ATF at intervals not exceeding 12-months made a significant improvement to the quality of the change, after that it seemed to tail off making the difference when the change was eventually made quite considerable. Perhaps using a top quality fluid might have helped but with fluid changes being made after (occasional) wading I wasn't keen to go down that route on that paticular gearbox. Even from brand-new, the change on my R380 was quite dreadfull and the dealer didn't want to know (they all do that sir), I changed to a synthetic oil and it helped (certainly in cold weather) but it still isn't up to the quality of my old LT77.
