    1984 110 3,9 isuzu from the Netherlands

    Hi,

    I am glad to write down that my Landy, after a lot of work, is running with the Famous 3,9 4BD1T Isuzu engine.
    It runs fabulous, is has a LT 85 gearbox and a 1.2 transferbox.

    A 1.0 transferbox from and old range Rover is waiting to be mounted after my holiday.

    Greetings from the Netherlands.

    Welcome. Pictures would be good (mainly of the engine, but the whole vehicle as well).

    G'day All, My 26 year old 110 Isuzu County is still going strong, pulls like a Locomotive, some pix of your conversion would be great (as others had stated) cheers Dennis
    PS you would be most likely the only person in the Netherlands with one

    Some Pictures

    Here are some pictures of my conversion.
    As you can see, I also have some welding to do, but that was not the main issue.
    I also made a RHD to LHD conversion at the same time.
    I used a 1994 discovery as a "Donor" car, for the front axle, and the steering box.

    Any drama going LHD, using the disco bits, or just bolt together?

    It's good to see it all fits on a LHD rover. Where did you source your engine? It looks like an early 85-86 model like mine with the top mount IHI turbo.

    It was a little drama. My engine came from a RHD 110. I needed the place where the steering pump was originally mounted on the engine, for my LHD steering box.

    I used the front axle (is a littlebit wider), the steering box and the atf reservoir from the Disco. The rest I converted myself from RHD to LHD with a little fantasy and some welding gear.

    For my steering pump I made a new mounting myself.

    I bought the engine together with the LT 85 and transferbox from a guy in the Netherlands, who wanted to put it in his own car, until he discovered that the engine is too powerful for the automatic gearbox from a disco, and he only wants to drive an automatic.

    This guy had bougt the engine in England.
    And yes, the engine is a 1986 model. ( do you know more about these turbo's??)
