If it did not have those two or the santana box then it had the LT77 5 speed from the 90 diesels and range rover. Same as the 200 TDI 110 box but with a shorter bell houseing and imput shaft.; But still came with the layshaft problems throwen in for free https://www.aulro.com/afvb/ https://www.aulro.com/afvb/Quote:

I have an 85 County V8 - came from the factory with the 5 speed LT 85 (Santana) Box.

Righto thanks guys.
So now we know the Late 85 110 V8 came with a LT85 box.
What about the rest of the stuff? Will Defender bits and bobs fit onto a county?
I'm assuming the chassis is very similar if not exactly the same. Bullbar should fit. Sill tanks should fit. Or not?
What about the rear sal diff. Essentially the same unit as a 95 Fender but with drum brakes? Same splines?
Mine was a 4-spd, LT-95, which I believe is a stronger unit(?).
Pretty sure the chassis is virtually identical. You can get disc brake conversions for the rear, or maybe swap for a later axle.
Later disc-brake diff is no problem, I was told that the booster needed to be changed. Not so, I'm still running the original County booster with a 94 Defender diff.
Re the Santana, parts are still readily available ex UK and at a considerable saving to the same parts supplied in Aust. I have just finished mine with a new mainshaft, new bearings, seals etc. If you need any assistance with part numbers for the box just let me know.

Land Rover are really lazy and will not change anything unless they have toQuote:

The 100 is the same as the first one that came out. Just differant engines and gearboxes. But they will all fit The have changed the electrics over the years. More adding to it than anything else
They made no differance to the sill tanks or any of that stuff. The only differance was with the interior and brakes (abs , traction control)
To give you an example. A 2003 dash (new style center consol) will fit easy into a 1983 110.
I have a 98 model landrover bullbar (ARB) fitted to my 85 county.
One of the things they did to later, 87 on 110's was to move the rear seat forward and make it into a split arrangement instead of the park bench in the back of the earlier ones.
Maxidrive axles/drive members interchanging "might" be an issue. My last County was an 86 V8 with the LT85, and when I ordered maxidrive drive members, they didn't fit. The problem was that I was supplied with Defender drive members, which do not "stick out" as far as County drive members. I swapped them for the correct maxidrive part made for the County, and all was ok.
