jimmy_neutron Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Whats the difference between a TD5 transfer box and a tdi transfer box? Will a TD5 transfer box fit straight on to a Tdi ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disco_al Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 don't see why not, both are lt230's AFAIK - and the TD5 uses the later R380's too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landroversforever Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 I think different outputs for the speedo. leccy for the TD5 one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disco_al Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 most 300 tdi's are leccy too (mine is) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy_neutron Posted April 27, 2009 Author Share Posted April 27, 2009 most 300 tdi's are leccy too (mine is) My 200tdi is leccy too .. B) So that wouldn't be a worry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landroversforever Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 oh... i thought it was only the TD5 with leccy speedo?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JST Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 most 300 tdi's are leccy too (mine is) most 300tdis? - really i thought leccy speedo came in 98/99 T boxes are the same. the speedo issue raised above here is only the pinion that goes into the T box, leccy and gear driven are interchangeable.

Lars L Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Indeed! I have a box from a 2002 110 behind my LT77. Nothing at all to worry about, just take the speedo drive from the old box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

western Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 speedo drive is the same on all transfer box's it later ones that have a electrical transducer instead of a cable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gali Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 I think the only different is an additional sensor for Low gear which is not wired at the TDI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Escape Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Interesting .. I'd never even heard of this. The TD5 engine management takes into account wether the TC is in low or high to alter the throttle map. In high the engine reacts faster to the (electronic) pedal to give a more nippy feel, in low a bit slower to gain control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lars L Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Mr Western is most probably correct. My box came without the drive so I just used the old one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escape Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 As for the speedo drives, we didn't have problems swapping an electronic one for a mechanical on a Borg Warner, so I'd assume it's no problem on an LT230 either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
western Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Mr Western is most probably correct. My box came without the drive so I just used the old one. Yep, I swapped from a cable drive speedo to the electrical transducer driven speedo [Td5 units] on my '89 110 LT230T & didn't have to touch the drive gear in the transfer box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
