twodoorgaz Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Hi folks, With a stumpy R380 behind a 200TDI - which transmission tunnel/seatbox/floor plates would give the closest to a factory-fit - Defender Lt77 (up to 200TDI) or Defender R380 (300TDi / TD5)? The stumpy R380 is advertised as a replacement for the LT77, but with a 1" longer mailbox and a 1" shorter bell housing I'm not sure which transmission tunnel would give the better fit for the gearsticks. Ideally a setup that would allow the use of a factory gaiter and handbrake lever without modification. Appreciate that you can cut and shut either to fit, but I'd prefer a straight bolt-on solution. The only LR example I can think of are the some of the Tithonus MOD 110s done by Ricardo which often had Stumpy R380s and 2.5NADs, but Withams is a long way away for a gander. Many thanks.

western Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I've got a stumpy R380, actually my 2nd one, my transmission tunnel is my original LT77 part, as is the adaptor part under fusebox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daslandroverman Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Stumpy R380 was put together to be a direct bolt in replacement for a short LT77, so if the shirt LT77 will fit, so does the Stumpy R380. Pretty much what's already been said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
