Young bobtail Rhys Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 As title really. Does anybody know whether an early 90/110 t-box will fit on a ZF auto from a 1988 range rover 3.5 efi. TIA Rhys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest diesel_jim Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Yes it will. they're (LT230 transfer boxes) are all interchangable. You may need an extension piece for the output shaft of the auto box to reach the input gear of the transfer box, luckily Ashcrofts supply one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LandyManLuke Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 The LT230 and ZF 4 speed were standard fit '86 to '89 ish, with the 3.5efi, so you shouldn't have any trouble. I'm not sure what the ratio in the RR LT230 was, not sure if any studs/bolts need moving/omitting, i've never split the LT230/ZF pair i have sat in the rangie. Edit: I really should stop making cups of coffee whilst posting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Young bobtail Rhys Posted March 24, 2008 Author Share Posted March 24, 2008 Thanks all And I am I right in saying that the early 90/110 transfer boxes had a low ratio? So, with 34" tyres on my bobtail it should be around the equivelant to running 205 tyres? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muddy Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 It depends whether you mean lower or low ratio. a defender lt230 has a ratio of 1:4 so will be lower than your range rovers 1:2 however the low ratio lt230 is from early 90's and 110's and comes in 1:6 flavour, either will fit its just chooseing which ratio you want. Will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Young bobtail Rhys Posted March 24, 2008 Author Share Posted March 24, 2008 Yeah, I want the lowest ratio which will be the earliest transfer boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
