    With that in mind, you should be able to fit the auto box to either engine though I suspect that the 300TDi will probably be easier. I think the main thing you have to work out is what to do about the oil cooler.
    Mark.
    Why ? Where is the oil cooler normally (on the Discos) and why won't it fit there on the Defenders ?[/b][/quote]

    IIRC - It's in the radiator assy (I don't think it's a seperate unit). You've got a greater surface area to work with on the Disco as the engine bay & grille are larger than the Def.

    Mark.

    Re: Auto Fot Td5?

    Hmm, the P38A (HSE which I drive) has the diffs offset to the opposite side from the Defenders/Rangie classics/Disco 1 (not sure about D2). The output from the transmission is also offset to the opposite side.

    The Defs etc, have the diff offset to the RHS, the P38A is offset to the left (as viewed from the driver's seat)

    That is only because the transfer case is different, the auto is still inline with the crankshaft. A zf from a disco td5 would be a good swap.

    As far as I can gather the bellhousing on the 200tdi and 300tdi are different lengths ( ? ) which would mean new mounts would need fabricating for the auto box and a different tailshaft lenght.

    Or am I way off.

    I thought that the other problem is that the HSE auto is electronic?
    Where as the others are just normal ZF's?

    :?

    The TD5 is electronically controlled so maybe its done that way?

    Who knows?

    Warren does. Ring him.

    See MR Automotive in the Recommended Suppliers - Qld section.

    Warren is the owner.
