In Aus it was only the 4.6 P38s that got the 24s (electronic). At least that's how I understood it. My 24 is a -061 out of a P38 4.6. Took a while to find that one as I wanted the big torque convertor. Well worth it when you have close on 500Nm from just off idle :D

The D2 and the D2a in Australia both had the same 4HP22EH.

correcter...

Thanks guys...I have now been ‘corrected’!

Dexron VI is a thinner fluid at low temperatures, to provide better fuel economy. It is specced to have the same viscosity as Dex3 at normal operating temperature. And it has later technology additives for lock up clutches and bands.
Off topic, I have just changed the fluid in a ZF 6 speed, and the ZF lifeguard 6 fluid was like water A liter of it ran through the funnel and a 3/8" tube in the time it took me to open the next bottle.

Update: I’ve found a 160000k transmission for less than 1/3 of the TRS price from a LR friend near me who wrecked a D2 a year or 2 ago.

I’ve bought an ATB diff centre and a high capacity sump from Ashcrofts and I’m going to rebuild my spare TC. I’ve already got the rebuild kit, but Ashcrofts recommend silicon as a sealer.

What sealers should I buy? I only want to do this once so I’d like high quality sealants.

the loctite range, hylomar #3 and stag.

if you do a quick search there should be some threads in tech or good oil from me that list the types and uses.
