Hi,
Is there any way To easily identify an r380?
Other than the serial of course, mine never had one...
Will I need to pull it down?
What's it behind?
That'll narrow it down a lot
Behind a 300 tdi in a defender, but it came with another vehicle as well, and at LEAST two vehicles have been mixed and matched, engines have been replaced, dubious odometer readings as well, so I'm a bit hamstrung, but it should have been a 97 model, 120 km but everything has been rebuilt, so no idea.
Mainly concerned what revision it is.
Late '97 should be a K, and that's a much stronger 'box then the J, but you'd have to pull it down to tell. [emoji53]
Is my recollection correct that the major difference between J and K suffix is the 5th gear support bearing?
If so - popping off the 5th extension housing is quick and easy and requires no setup to replace from memory
Would also allow you to check / clean / replace the pump and filter mesh before putting the box into service? - as well as checking that 5th support bearing

I have a message from Dave Ashcroft somewhere detailing the differences, I'll see if I can dig it up

Mine also has no number and have been wondering the same. Do you know how he knew to spot the difference?
