Thanks

Very few manuals came here like less than a dozen or so, if it's cracked have it welded.
I don't think they made a petrol manual so there'd be none in the US.

I am actually trying to convert my automatic P38 to a manual. Have 380 gearbox now need pedal box. Can't buy in AU or UK - recently declared fully obsolete! Now searching in NZ and USA.

You won't find one in the US, would a D2 pedal box fit ?

Would a pedal box from an equivalent year Defender fit, or be modified to fit?

Lots of D3 manuals in the UK. Have you tried a wanted post on disco3.co.uk?

Have you tried any of the UK suppliers? Email Rimmer Bros, Advanced Factors or Island 4x4? Their sites list a lot of manual gearbox parts including pedal assemblies etc.

Hi information received from OEM distributor Britcar shows that p38 manual petrol or diesel pedal box was later adopted for D3 manual petrol or diesel. Drawings of D2 manual pedal box and P38 and D3 pedal box look very different. Not saying they cant be interchanged or modified but it would be a lot easier not to . I am starting to think maybe welding clutch workings to P38 auto pedal box? Any thoughts?
