Lol..i see you went for the 'last resort' option!

It can, but it involves a lot of cutting and fiddling...

Yebbut is it a defender or disco 200tdi? Why bother, auto defenders are, erm, without wishing to offend...for lazy old gits. A decent LT77 long stick box is easily found..found a perfect one myself for £45

I'm confused, why are you asking about fitting the auto box in a Defender if its a Disco?

Get a defender manual lt77 gearbox, you'll enjoy it more and it'll be worth more.

Stop fannying about. Where are you?

It doesnt matter...you will have to get the box out to see...get another box, put it in, then recon the one you take out and get money back.
