Can I use a D1 CDL lever in a D2

So you paid 36% less to get 50% of what my .50 CDL kit does ... Now that's a bargain :D

No I paid 64% less to get 50% of your functionality - that's 14% for free! :D

I realised that before, i was going to edit the post ... you beat me to it :D

But agree, a CDL is awesome. I have the Bruce Davis povo version that only works in low. Cost $180. Mines an auto. I wouldn't get the BD version in a manual though as sometimes you need an unlocked low range for towing or backing.

You also lose the ability to run CDL at high speed on loose surfaces and sand...

Very restrictive...

I would prefer to have it but have to admit if I can go over 50 kph I generally haven't found a need for locked high. That is I haven't missed it once in 6 years of having the disco like it is. Maybe has to do with where I take it. There isn't much call for high 4wd in the high country :).

If I did more sand driving I would probably upgrade but there's no beaches near me.

The ones I've seen about haven't been that much cheaper....

you need to got to one of those pull it your self wreckers, not landy specialist wreckers.
The pull it yourself wreckers have price lists the price is the same for any car. A gear linkage is a gear linkage. if your smart you get them for next to peanuts, ( I didn't say free, but cheap)

I have a d1 linkage setup in a d2 I am wrecking at the moment

They will work, Only issue i saw was they are noisy as they are a direct link to the T/Case. The D2 variant is cable operated, smoother & quieter.

But Hey...

If its free go for it.

Cheers

The noise issue is bollocks insofar as the several v8 d1s i have driven including my own. I know lr say they went from rod to cable to improve nvh...i wonder if it was cheaper.

Im my d2 i just used a basic push pull cable located on the transmission tunnel....the side of...and it works like a treat. Cheap as chips. Does not intefere with the seat or my leg. I actually prefer this over my d1 stock set up.

Cheers
