This adaptor kit from ASHCROFT allows for the installation of an LT77 or R380 5-speed gearbox into a Series vehicle. This combination provides a stronger gearbox, synchro on all forward gears and overdrive 5th.
If you have coil sprung axles on your Series then they will have CV joints and thus you can just fit the 5 speed with the LT230 and this will be fine. If you have stock leaf sprung axles you have 2 options:
-
You can fit the 5 speed to the engine then modify the LT230 to part time 4 wheel drive and fit this in conjunction with free wheeling hubs on the front. This kit works by fitting parts inside the LT230 centre diff to change the operation of the diff lock: in the "diff locked" position the centre diff is locked providing drive to front and rear props, but in the "unlocked" position there is no drive to the front, only the rear. When used with free wheeling hubs, the front prop and diff are not spinning.
-
The other option is to fit the LT77 or R380 and then fit the series transfer case onto the back of it with this kit. This way you retain the stock Series transfer case with selectable 2/4WD. You can also fit freewheeling hubs so you are not wasting fuel spinning the front drivetrain. This results in a shorter transmission and allows you to keep the stock front grille even on an 88" model.
Compatible with Land Rover Series II, Series IIA and Series III.
