Morning all

Few questions about a 300Tdi with a R380 in a RRC. Did they have the same bell housing as a defender and what gear sector set up would be on the R380?

Cheers Landy Lee

It’s the long bell housing but you need to change the stick to RR.
Look for a disco 300tdi these will fit directly

Do you need the gearbox cross member as well??
Does the gearbox fit to a crossmember or the chassis…. I know the 200 to chassis but 300 …????

The things I chopped up for racing 30years ago makes me wince now.
I see all sorts while driving round the country with work & it’s amazing how many LR are just parked in the corner of a field to rot.they are no where near buildings.so unable to ask if for sale.

Have you looked at shipping from Australia?
They are cheaper over there & less rust.
