I don't know much about gearboxes, but JC (as one of the most renowned Land Rover mechanics in the country) certainly has the guff for you.

There doesn't appear to be a huge amount of rust there, but there is invariably more than you can see and firewall rust is particularly bad and often terminal.

Hang out for a better one - they are out there.


Standard engines are better too IMHO. I'm pulling the Holden out of my shorty.
I'm Not THAT knowledgeable, OR renowned Shonky!!!

I actually have fairly limited experience with series stuff, but I love their simpleness, the gearboxes and drivetrain in general is beautifully 'minimalist'
