Ah just the info i needed, I mite be better of looking out for a G or H suffix box then. Anyone know of one for sale in the west midlands area?

Ok thanks for the advice ill get my original gearbox reconditioned and keep my eyes open for a Disco transfer box. The LT77 box i have is a suffix E is this any good or one of the weak ones??

I am in the process of doing a 200TDi conversion on my 1988 Land Rover 90 N/A Diesel. The original LT77 gearbox is getting a bit tired, the syncros were starting to go and it rattled when in N, which stops when the clutch is pressed down.:confused: I was just going to get the original box...
