Does anybody know what should i change if i want insert auto gearbox?
Cos i found a good one from wrecked car.

My car is d2 td5
 
Where to start?
Gearbox, propshafts, Brake drum may be different, Centre console, pedal box assembly, ECU, possibly speedo cable.
Sounds like a big job. If you had the 2 cars next to each other could be easier but i would guess it could be cheaper to buy an Auto Disco instead
 
why propshafts? i think transferbox is the same... so no need to change it.
Centre console? is it different between auto and manual? if yes well it is cheap to buy.

Pedal box yes of course ill need a new one. ECU, i think also yes. do i need to change flywheel?
 
The engine ECU should be ok, just needs to be told it now works with an autobox, but you'll need to get the EATS (autobox ECU).

There's likely to be a fair bit of cabling you'll need as well to connect the box, to the cars various systems.

Auto transmission is much better on offroad then manual gear.... and as far as i know Zf's gearboxes are better then rover's manual's

Anybody know, do propershafts on auto differ from manual gearbox?
 
you would have to fit drive plate etc with gear box ,fit crank sensor which will go from you manual to new auto and you would need ecu for auto transmission etc
