Runs pretty well yes. The 90 was stood for best part of 9 months and started on the button! The only history is when i bought it the guy told me it had just been rebuilt, no paperwork to prove it though. Theres an oil leak coming from the gearbox end of the engine somewhere, cant pinpoint to...

Everything thats in there. I’ll need the g/box and t/box as a part ex with ashcrofts for a rebuilt r380 and 1.4 t/box. Unless the lt77 is worth more with the engine?

I just want it out of the 90 asap. I havent got the space to store it.

They do a rear door card. Maybe you saw the armrest and thought they were selling a door card?

sold

Do you know anyone local handy with a welder (mig or tig) you can buy the bends and flanges online and make your own custom exhaust. Thats what i’m planning to do with mine.

Looking good!

Not much room for lights either. Looks good though.

I have one on my lt77. You did mention to me that it will fit with some modifications?

My 90 is a 200tdi but i have a 3.9 ready to go in

Seeing as your on the site james, what do you think of the box i have bought? Is it a good variant?

Just wondering what they thought of the kit really, ease of fitting, how does the shifting feel etc.

Has anyone fitted the long stick to short stick kit from ashcrofts? I have recently bought a disco 2 v8 r380 gearbox (53a********J) for my 90. The original plan was to mock-up the conversion using the above box then sending it to ashcrofts for a rebuilt unit but in long stick format.

Well i’m not that bothered about how quick it will go to be honest (its a land rover afterall) as for mpg i will be looking to run it in lpg but it will be a weekend toy when done.

finally got under the 90 today to have a look at the gearbox and transferbox numbers. gearbox is a 50A******G and transfer box is a 28D which I already knew was a 1.222. what's my gearbox come out of? does the last letter on the gearbox specify the suffix?

Yet again james i thank you! (Should have you on speed dial!) do you have a part number for the cranked arm required?

I have bought myself a disco 2 manual v8 gearbox for my v8 conversion. I know the selector/remote is in the wrong position for a defender but i’m going to modify the existing remote i have on my lt77 along with the adaptor available from ashcrofts. What i would like to know is can i use the...

The engine is still in the 90 at the moment. I think i’ll leave it in until it sells then. Thanks for the replies

Looks like i have a mish-mash of running gear! Auto disco 200tdi , lt77 gearbox out of god knows what and a 1.222 lt230 out of a disco i think? What would the engine be worth?

I’m going to be starting the restoration & conversion to a v8 of my 90 soon. The 200tdi i currently have under the bonnet has a 13L number??? I know that a 90 should have 11L and disco 12L what did mine come out of?
