Yes Ian, Soozoo was fantastic with the auto behind it, but didn't last

Still wish I could do another conversion, using a 4HP24E and a compushift, but happy enough with the LT95 now...sort of....

The jeep I was in hung in well on the steep declines in the Kozieosko (NSW) ( sic I think) and Alpine(Vic) national Parks and they were very steep. I thought the Landy auto box was an excellent box No Probs with it?.

Surely there would be an auto available that could cope, was it a ZF that failed?

No probs, unless you stick it behind a bone shaker of a 4bd1T and push 450+ Nm through it

My biggest problem apart from breaking the 3 gearbags was the gearing wasn't low enough, even in low range and the torque at idle was imense, had trouble stopping it in drive in first low at idle
