no you cant input shaft too long and spigot is only 19mm not 22mm ,yes it could be converted but but at no small cost

oops forgot about that!!

I'm back , Jamesmartin I hope you are here .
Ok , we got the new gearbox but minus the transfer box so we need to put the old transfer box on . Problem is how do I get it off ?
Talked to a garage and have been told its a 1/2 day job , is this right ?
Also any idea what the part number is for the complete gasket set .
Are you still interested in buying the old gearbox james ?

6 bolts which can be studs and nuts hold the two boxes together 2 from front 4 from rear ,two dowels hold them inline and must go back so check as you cant tell which box they will stay with +linkage which will be self evident ,i fix the two together and set linkage before fitting as is easier imo,to do this stand t/box on hand brake drum and support pto cover and lower gear box down vertically into t/box ,if your old is defender lt77 and not scrap i would be interested,no gaskets or sealer are needed to fit t/box to gear box or gear box to engine
