range rover manual gearbox

peter8315 · Mar 10, 2015

Got my gearbox delivered yesterday, bought what i thought to be a disco box, turns out i got a RR manual gear box the one with the viscous coupling, anybody had any dealings with this type of box are they any good, and what oil would they take ?

Oil is Texaco MTF 94, main problem will be the viscous coupling, others can tell you more.
Transfer box uses ATF Dexron IId or III.

Yep, VCU is a PITA, a diff lock would be better.

Hi
Im breaking a Classic Range Rover 1987 with a manual gearbox, still in vehicle, so could be driven up and down my drive.
