Fourtrak Gearbox Question

Forum: 

I own a C reg (1986) short wheel base 2.8D which now has a knackered gearbox & transfer box. Ihave seen in the local newspaper someone advertising a gearbox from a 2.8TD quite cheap and was wondering if anyone can tell me if this gearbox would fit on the 2.8D???

Any advice would be much appreciated!

Thank you.

All the gearboxes are the sam

All the gearboxes are the same, except for a minor ratio change. They will bolt straight up. The transfer case may be different, the earlier ones are manual, the later ones are vacumn operated.

Cheers

transfer case

Thank you for your quick response. Just wanted to ask you, will the transfer work the same? suppose it wont if the vehicle its coming off has electronic 4H!

The donor vehicle has a push

The donor vehicle has a push button 4H on the dash, then its a solinoid transfer case. I have not had the opportunity to see if they are adaptable to take a manual type selector. The transfer cases will change over, again the mounts and everything are the same, just the method of operation is different.
Can anyone else help out here?

Cheers
David
