Thread: SADF Radio Relay Truck - Gog

Thanks Ben

Have tried that, but as you suggest they are only small piccies that don't clearly show the way that the cable connects to the selector or if the D2 selector is actually different to the 110 type.

I get the impression that the lever on the D2 selector has an arc from 11 O'clock to 1 O'clock when viewed from the RHS, while the 110/county arcs from 2 O'clock to 4 O'clock when viewed from the same side.

There are good pics of the cdl bracket here:
www.discovery2.co.uk / D2 CDL levers..... THE BEST!!

Those images are O.K. so far as they indicate the mechanism for the CDL (So I now know which side is which), but have not sorted out the Hi-Lo shift connection.

Remember this is a 110 LT230 transfer using the D2 cable to connect to the original selector rod in a Series IIB forward control. So the gearstick end is redundant, just need the cable connections on the box.

All sorted thank to Graeme Cooper Automotive!

Took a drive over to St Peters and had a look at their second hand spares department.

Seems there are at least three selector levers on the LT230.

1. The 110 early D1 type have the lever welded to the selector shaft at 90 degrees with a double bend in the lever. (1st image)
2. The late D1 have the lever at 360 degrees, also with a double bend in the lever. (not shown)
3. The D2, which I needed, have the lever at 360 degrees and a straight lever (no bends) (2nd image)

I now have a replacement D2 selector top which will work with the cable mechanism.

Thanks everyone!

I am looking for a front brake rotor from a Maserati Biturbo MY82 through MY88.

Any condition, new, second hand or even below maximum undersize.

Wanted for a LT230 transmission brake rotor.

RDA and DBA no longer carry them.

send me a PM.

Look at Speedway Motors web site. They sell a disc handbrake for street rods that is easily adapted.

I already have the X-Eng disk handbrake kit for the LT230 which has problems for my application.

There are numerous mechanical caliper options, what I need is a top-hat rotor with 4 studs, a centre hole of less than 60.5mm, diameter greater than 220mm and height of around 50mm.

Hence I need a rotor off a Maserati Biturbo or second preference a Fiat Croma 1985-88 (F), third option Honda CRX 1.6 ED 2-D DX-Si 1987-91 (R).

The Biturbo has 5 wheel studs.

Lots of rotors for them on ebay though:
