stobbie Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 I can only find 26 or 28 teeth input gears for LT230. The LT230 of a friend of mine has a 26 teeth input gear fitted but it will not turn around, he says he needs a 21 teeth gear, is that possible?

stobbie Posted July 12, 2008 Author Share Posted July 12, 2008 I already found out there's no such thing as a 21 teeth input gear...only 26 or 28... so something else must be wrong with his box... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowie69 Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Is it missing 5 or 7 teeth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveSIIA Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Is the LT230 off the vehicle at the moment? If so, drain the oil, remove the bottom cover plate and remove the intermediate gear. Does the input gear turn freely? If not, then the input gear & bearings are set up wrong. If yes, then there are three possibilities Fault elsewhere in the transfer box? Input gear installed wrong way round? Input gear not suited to the spec of transfer box? IIRC, early LT230's ( suffix A & B ) had a different helix angle on the gears to the later ones. The later cross drilled input gear cannot be used on these boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
