I have a problem selecting 4th gear and thought it might improve things. I'm assuming you mean adjusting the two bolts that tension the springs...??

I dont know the lt85, but, basically, you want to adjust the springs so as the "neutral" mid point is in line with 3rd and 4th, and not wobbling about all over the place.

So, to then get it into gear in 3rd or 4th, it should be a simple / basic shift forwards or backwards from the place that the springs pull the stick to when its not in gear.

Thanks for that guys, I live in the arse end of no where in south west France so good Landy help is very hard to find.... So thanks all..
 
On this forum a large number of people who live in France say "south west" France.
I don't know why.
Which dept you are in, would help narrow it down.
Eg our place is in 81. (But we won't be there for a month or so.)
 
I fitted a Slickshift to my R380 Defender and found it to be much nicer to live with. I set it up as the instructions suggest, but 3rd to 4th was sticky, so did have to adjust the springs a little more, I must have been out just a touch, as once right it's effortless.
 
Hello yes, thank you for the question... I live in Ariege Dept 09 If you know of anyone please let me know.
 
I forgotten how to start a new thread but this is under side of my TD5, I was changing the oil and noticed the two threaded holes....Should they be there..Should they not have a bolts in them...

Ive had slick shifts in my Land Rovers since Shabs released them, huge benfit in the R380 combined with Swepcos oil in does make for a much more positive and better change.

Thats with a properly adjusted box as well.

Id highly recommend it.
