51bigG Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 I have been offered a 1:2 transfer box. I am about to have the clutch done in my Td5 at last, but I am contemplating fitting the 1:2 transfer box at the same time, but I am not sure what is fitted at the moment, Would a 1:4 ratio box be the norm? How do I check, is there a serial number on the box somewhere? What advantage would fiting this box give me? I presume that it would give me better fuel economy at speed and lower engine revs, if I tow anything I like to use the D3. Thanks in advance Graham.

eds Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 The 1.2 is normally a disco ratio which some fit to defenders There should be a sticker on the back of your transfer box near the filler plug telling you the ratio. As for whether is is a good idea opinion is divided Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
